He also enjoyed planting sweet corn, radishes and tomatoes in his garden and plowing his neighbors and friends’ gardens. Every Sunday evening, he met with friends at Betzville Park to solve the world’s problems (according to him). He loved visiting our sister city family in Germany and anything to do with history.
