He was an avid fisherman and loved to hike, jeep the backcountry, and arrowhead hunt. In the summers he worked landscaping. He left Aspen in the 1970s for Park City, Utah where he remarried and started another family and landscaping business. He is preceded in death by both parents and his brother Desmond. He is survived by his sister Velma (Sable) Peterson, three children by his first marriage (Michele Bertholf, Chris Bertholf, and Nicole Bertholf), a daughter from his second marriage (Mia Keller) and several grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
