He is survived by Fay - his wife of 30 years, siblings: Deola (Glen) Bond, Linda Sue Chapman, Mary Lou Beltz, and Johnny Addington; Children: Monica (Steve) Lloyd, Liane (Kevin) Clairmont, Ramonda (Anthony) Morency, Stephen Addington, Chris Tomayer, Al (Chris) McKay, Dee McKay, Bud (Crystal) McKay, Son-in-law: Dan Clairmont, 17 grandchildren, 23 great-grandchildren, 1 great-great-grandchild, and numerous cousins, nieces and nephews.
