During his years in Flaxville he was a projectionist at the old Flaxville Theatre in the 1930's and over the years he worked on many electrical, plumbing and general repair projects, along with being helpful in many fund-raising efforts for various organizations.
Along with this he also played the banjo and spoons. He and Ginger Miller land the late Winnie Moulds made up a musical combo known as the Buckwheat Trio which performed at various events in the area over the years, especially during earlier years in the home talent minstrel shows and later musical shows at the Dirty Shame shows in Pioneer Town at the Daniels County Museum grounds.
He also played in some of the dance bands during those years when Saturday night there always were dances around somewhere in the area.
