He enjoyed playing video games on his Xbox and reading all kind of books, he even dabbled in writing short stories every now and again. He was known as somewhat of a foodie, he loved all kinds of food and often asked to try some crazy things. If family vacations were left up to him to plan it would have been based around places to eat. Growing up he lived on both coasts and a few places in between, so coming home and spending time with his extended family was always something he looked forward to and when the family moved back to Iowa permanently, the family get togethers were a favorite of his. Through all the ups and downs of his short life, there was always a smile on his face, and he was always looking on the brighter side. He loved so many people and so many people loved him. He impacted a lot of lives, and he will be missed by so many.
