He served in the Korean War during 1950-1952. He was very patriotic and honored his country. He loved his family and was always interested in knowing what was going on in their lives. He was a good father, grandfather, and great grandfather, and we will all miss his many stories and his gift of gab. Dad was a farmer and rancher for most of his life.
