He always said he joined the Navy to see the world, and never got too far from San Diego, California. He married Mary A.

He missed the Bob Wills Celebration in Turkey, Texas this past weekend. It was always a fun filled weekend to visit and catch up with old friends, classmates, and family. But, he's catching up with family and friends now, smiling down from Heaven with a front row seat and listening to Bob Wills music.
