He was an enthusiastic coach and supporter of his son’s passion for lacrosse and hockey through organizations like RI Bull Dogs Lacrosse and Saints Hockey.

He was a coach for the R.I. East Greenwich Youth Organization, a member of the East Greenwich Rotary and the Buckhorn Hunting Club in New York.
