He was an interesting character and a great singer. In his later years he became religious.
I remember reading an interesting article by him many years ago. It was about his Mannlicher Schoenauer rifle he bought when he was in the Air Force in Germany. I have no idea how to spell that rifle btw. They were actually not very expensive back then.
Like many talented people he had his personal demons but seemed to eventually overcome them.
I don’t know the correct spelling either but it looks right. They were a real piece of work for the price, my FIL had one that he hardly shot, it was beautiful.
He was religious from the beginning.
