After returning from the war he settled in Kansas City, where he worked for Armco Steel, Union Wire Rope for 32 years. He retired in 1981 and moved his wife Joyce and daughter Lora to Humansville.

He was preceded in death by his first wife of 24 years, Dolly, his second wife of 44 years Joyce, his parents and siblings Nina, Beulah, Glen, Velma, Charles, and half siblings Lora, Pearl and George.
