Spud worked 20 years as a metal fabricator for Ohio Metal and Seneca Sheet Metal. He spent the last 15 years of employment working as a waste management driver for a couple local waste management companies. A farmer's son Spud spent over 40 years of his life farming alongside his father and brother Jeff.

Spud enjoyed the simple things in life. He was known for being particular about the things he owned and always having a well groomed yard, and cleanest building. He enjoyed working in his garden and spending time outside.

He had three true loves in life: He loved his family especially his wife and high school sweetheart Judy. Never moving more than 4 miles from home, family was very important to him. He was an avid outdoorsman. He loved hunting, trapping, fishing and just being in the woods. If he couldn't hunt, trap or fish then he could be found in the woods cutting wood. Spud could always find a reason to be in the woods or outside. His last love was beer. Spud loved his beer! He loved the time spent with family and friends drinking beer. He enjoyed the Friday nights in his building drinking beer with his friends and neighbors. No one could come visit Spud without being offered a beer.
