Although retiring from Education, he continued mentoring and influencing young people as a sports official, Pony director, and held multiple leadership positions with TASO Volleyball. He received numerous awards and acknowledgements throughout the years, but Pops most valued achievement is the values and principles he has instilled in so many young people’s lives.
