B-Nut served 24 years as a legendary Flight Engineer for the KC-130 community. He traveled the world with over 10,000 flight hours. His favorite paradise was Wake Island. B-Nut was a world-class fisherman, who played golf and softball. He was a jack of all trades and a master of many. He had a wealth of knowledge and was famous for his sense of humor and quotes.
B-Nut was a loving father, husband, and confidant. Every one of his fellow Marines has a true story to tell about their endeavors. One fellow Marine witnessed B-Nut using a pencil eraser on an aircraft so it would land safely.
B-Nut will be greatly missed by many for his soft, loving, caring, thoughtful, beautiful soul. His love will show through his family. And a bright light will always shine from this legend.
