Through his faith and determination, he provided for his family without excuse and would always show compassion, patience, imagination and a work ethic that we all try to mimic to this day. He was an avid fisherman, a bird enthusiast, an all-around outdoorsman and an amazing craftsman. With all the life lessons that he taught us and the sacrifices that he made, Canuto made a lasting impression on us all. We will continue honoring him by keeping his spirit alive as we continue to pass along the same wisdom to our children.
