He married the love of his life, Elizabeth Melanie Pilkington, on May 27, 2016. They live on a beautiful lake in Stanardsville, Va., where he loved to fish! He was very adventurous and fearless. He loved his motorcycles and cars. He was also quite the athlete as a child. He was extremely bright, witty and funny. He will be missed dearly.
