Yet beyond his humor, he was steadfast in his care and dedication to his family and friends. His generous nature left a mark on his loved ones and the wider community.

He is survived by his sister, Michele Wickett, and will be deeply missed by his nephews and niece, who carry forward his legacy. He was preceded in death by his parents, James and Yvonne Ferrar, whose memories he held dear throughout his life.
