He played football and baseball in high school and football in college. He served in the National Guard for six
years and was a member of the Prospect United Methodist Church.
He was an inspiration to many of his former students for his determination and for many, it led to a career in art or teaching or both. One of his greatest accomplishments, along with his wife, was his vision and reality of Chapel Hill House, a retreat near Morral for families who are dealing with a child who has cancer. He will be missed.
He was a loving son, husband, father, grandfather and teacher.
