Early in his life, he played semi-pro baseball and bore for the rest of his life the scar that he received from an injury when a hard-hit baseball hit him in the lower shin. He was the most proud of his attendance record at Sunday School, having attended 41 years without missing. He was ordained as a deacon in First Baptist Church, Bowling Green, on March 18, 1945. He was well known his entire life for his sense of humor. He was always ready with a joke even though the recipient had always heard it from him before...usually many times.
