He was known for his laid-back spirit, finding joy in the simple pleasures of life, most notably taking leisurely naps and spending quality time with his loved ones. His home was always open, a gathering place where laughter and love were shared freely. L.D. is lovingly survived by his devoted wife, Tina Mooring, who was his steadfast partner and confidante.
