The stroke afflicted his left side hard, and required many months of hard rehab.

November 2016- Smoking in the sunroom of his Naples condo. After his stroke in November 2011, he was in really bad shape and depressed. He fought back, hit rehab hard, and recovered well enough to play golf again. His doctor told him if he smoked again, he’d be dead in 5 years. Well… he kept smoking two packs a day and lived another 9 years. And it wasn’t his lungs or cancer that took him.
The two close brothers enjoying each other’s company!
