He graduated from Menahga High School in 1979, went on to get his Bachelors of Business Administration from Bemidji State University in 1983 and spent most of his life as a flooring salesman. He loved to camp, fish and spend time with friends. He married Colleen Pulju on February 14, 1994.

The memorial service will be held on Friday, April 22 nd at 1 PM at the Menahga VFW and burial will follow at the Jim Cook Cemetery in Menahga, Minnesota. He will be sadly missed by many as he was a loving father, husband, brother, uncle, cousin and friend, as well as an honorable and well admired man throughout his life. Go home……and have peace at last.
