Before returning from a leave of duty, in 1968, he married his high school sweetheart, maintaining a life-long love and being a devoted father to their two children, Lori and Wesley.

Beyond work and family, his major interest was sports, participating in EPNG and community leagues in basketball, baseball, softball, bowling, flag football, and especially golf. He was also known to have made several contributions to various casinos around the country from time to time and frequently enjoyed cruising and vacationing with friends and family, especially after retirement.
