He was a founder of the Bruno's Memorial Classic, now known as the Regions Charity Classic, a Champions Tour golf tournament.

The group had been on an annual Christmas tour of its 241 supermarkets and was headed to its stores in Huntsville, Alabama when the crash occurred. Soon after the tournament's name was changed in memory of recently passed family members and Bruno's employees.
