For a long time he was a member of the Georgetown First Presbyterian Church. However, in later years, moved his membership to the Methodist Church. He was a member of Georgetown Lodge #72 F.A.M., the Royal Arch Masons #52 and White Oak Chapter #193 O.E.S.
His life demonstrated his devotion to his family, his lodges and his church.
