Riley was an excellent mechanic and learned many of his talents from his father, "Poley." Riley enjoyed spending time in the woods every year looking for that next big buck, or with a fishing pole waiting for that next bite.

Riley's funny demeanor and wonderful personality will be remembered and missed by many.
