1952. He was a graduate of Grosse Pointe University School in 1970 and Hillsdale College in

1974 where he was a member of the Delta Tau Delta fraternity. He was an avid golfer and

bowler for many years and was a member of the Country Club of Detroit and the Detroit Athletic

Club. He enjoyed ski trips with family and friends throughout Northern Michigan and the

western U.S. His jolly personality, smile and laughter will be missed by many.

Caskey (Daniel McCrimmon), and Emily Peabody (Daniel); grandchildren, Makenzie & Kyler

Fox; Alexandra & Olivia Peabody; sister Nickey Sawyer (Philip); nephew Mathew Sawyer; niece

His four-legged friends Bella, Erma, Amos, Raymond, & Hazel will miss his smooches,

scratches, and snuggles.

A celebration of his life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, charitable donations can be

made in his name to St. Jude's Children's Hospital and Hospice of Michigan.
