books on criminal justice, selling over 6,000 copies. During retirement he wrote community columns for the Winona Daily News and Winona Post. Quotes from his books were spoken in British Parliament and his words opened a worldwide conference on corrections held at The Hague, Netherlands, in 2014. He also held morning "Coffee Court" at Schniepp's. He is survived by his son, Daniel, Stillwater, Minn., and grandchild, Miranda; son, William, Winona; and special friend, Susan Davey, Winona. He is preceded in death by his granddaughter, Marina. At his request there will be no traditional funeral, only a private burial at Woodlawn. He also wished there to be no contributions or flowers. Instead, he wants those that live on to read a book, look up an old friend, adopt an orphan puppy or kitten, plant a tree, put up a birdhouse, canoe the backwaters, hike the bluffs, and donate your guns to the police department.
