•Businessman – owned the largest pool company in Florida

•Co-Chairman for the World Conference of the Underwater Society of America 

•Model & Actor – was selected as the original Marlboro Man

•Bit of a rebel – only a few people know the real story of how the Jesus statue got in the water at John Pennekamp State Park!

•Athlete  - an early pioneer of body building

•Friend to so many

•A man of Integrity, Honor and Impeccable Values… but he could tell a story!

•Loved Father, Grandfather & Great-Grandfather

•Activist -- When you walk out on the beach, thank Slick… he and a couple of his friends fought Palm Beach socialites all the way to the Florida Supreme Court to keep our beaches public when they tried to deny locals access to the Palm Beach beaches.
