He proudly served in the US Army during the Korean War. He enjoyed telling his war stories. He was a self-employed Exxon dealer for many years in Tucson and touched many lives throughout his career. He enjoyed traveling the United States with his family in his motor home. He also loved going to Nebraska and Iowa to visit all his relatives and to spend time on the farm he grew up on. He was a dedicated church member and a member of the Knights of Columbus for many years.
