He still had his Herefords until 2006 when he finally sold the last two. He moved off the farm to live at the Rudolf Square in 2008. This spring he entered the Sheyenne Care Center because of his failing health. He was very proud of his granddaughters and especially his great-grandson and great-granddaughter. He will be missed.
