Following an Honorable Discharge, his work experience began with General Motors Manufacturing at the GM facility in Doraville Georgia where, like his father, he retired after 30 years of service.

He is survived by his brothers, Steve and David Titshaw (Laura); and his nephew and niece, Jordan Tyler Titshaw (Stephanie) and Rachel Marie Titshaw.
