He was with A.H. Robinson Pharmaceutical Company for 28 years and enjoyed four different positions. His children would never doubt the deep love their father had for them. He had many interests: music, oil painting, golf, reading, fishing, and ACC sports. He especially enjoyed telling stories over a glass of scotch. He was preceded in death by his parents, wife Ann, brother Mike, and son-in-law Curt Stewart. During the last nine years of his life, A.C. spent many happy days with his best friend, Fay Hunsucker.
