Lance was well known in the community for his HVAC work, having successfully started his own HVAC business in 1959. He loved the lake, waterskiing, and spending time with his family. He especially cherished his 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air and enjoyed showing it off at local parades and car shows. He was a proud member of the Hibriten Masonic Lodge. Lance also enjoyed singing and karaoke with friends and family.
