The last couple of years were very hard for him as COVID limited many of the social events he enjoyed, but he was blessed to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas this year with some of his family before his untimely passing.
As the recipient of a kidney transplant, the family would like to honor Atress by asking that instead of flowers, donations be made to the National Kidney Foundation, https://www.kidney.org.
