He retired from JM Tull Industries after 35 years. He enjoyed vegetable gardening on his farm, word puzzles, travel, and his beer (Pabst or Killian Red). He was an avid sports fan and rooted for the Atlanta Braves, Falcons and Georgia Bulldogs.

He was an active member of St. Brendan the Navigator Catholic Church in Cumming, Georgia for over 20 years.

He was preceded in death by his wife Helen and is survived by daughters Debbie McCormick, Kathy Ebert Major, Mary Lynn Boeh, (John Boeh) 6 grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren, sister-in-law Dorothy Ullery, and numerous family members.
