After his military service, he married my mother Grace Valiquette. They moved west to the fast growing city of Las Vegas, NV. There he worked as a carpenter at the NV atomic test site, where they built high-rise towers for atomic testing. After that job he went into framing and cabinet making.
As time caught up with him from living a fast life he came down with diabetes. It cost him a leg and it was pretty much all down hill after that. He moved back to his roots and just gave up. He was a good man and father as much as I can remember. It's a shame we didn't have much time together.
