He attended barber college in Kansas City and was a barber there for about five years before moving back to Liberal.

He helped his parents at Workman Paneling and worked for 24 years at Masonite in Pittsburg, Kan. He was an avid quail hunter. He had a good sense of humor and was a little ornery and always had a smile on his face. He loved his family, especially his grandchildren and he will be missed.
