Drew was passionate about cars. Everthing from buying and trading cars, to driving them as often as he could, to attending car shows every year, to watching car racing and even being designated to drive for his friends. Drew was often seen washing his car (especially the lights), filling the tires or checking the oil or other fluids-he simply loved cars. Drew was an avid sports fan, he watched all the sports that he could find on the satellite, and he was a huge Eskimos fan and Boston Bruins fan right back to his childhood. Drew also enjoyed the CB radio as a teen and his music. He made many home tapes, all grenres for himself and his friends. There was nothing like KISS to Drew, he wore the t-shirts and caps showing his loyalty.
