He married the love of his life Patsy Heuermann on June 16, 1960. They lived happily together as best friends until his last day. He left this world peacefully at his home in Abilene, Texas surrounded by family. He was a wonderful husband who loved his family and extended family endlessly.

He spent many years working with International Harvester Trucks in sales and service. He worked his way up to management before retiring. He later opened his own automotive business in Sweetwater, Texas which enabled them to retire early.  They then spent many precious years at Lake Coleman where they enjoyed time with family and met many good friends.

The family would like to extend their thanks to Alpha Omega Hospice for providing the comfort and care necessary for his peaceful passing.
