From 1961 to 1964 he served honorably in the U.S. Army in Germany. He was the owner of a power line company and throughout the western United States you will see his legacy of power lines. He married Judy Walton in 1973. They made Cokeville their home where they raised their 5 children. He sold his company in 2000 and this allowed him 15 years to enjoy his children and grandchildren. He loved hunting, snowmobiling, NASCAR, the Utah Jazz, and pinochle but his true love in life was his grandchildren.
