He was an avid bowler and member of the South Bend Bowling Association. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1999 with many league championships under his belt. He was most proud of his 298 and 300 game in 1990. He then became an avid golfer. He is on a list of only a small number of left-handed people to have bowled a 300 game and have a hole in one. In his hay day he also enjoyed camping and fishing. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Hahn Funeral Home has been entrusted with handling the final arrangements.
