He served in General Patton's 3rd army, 319th infantry. He is a recipient of the bronze star for his valor. He was a WW II and Korean War veteran. He retired from the S.C. Department of Transportation and retired from the S.C. Air National Guard at McIntyre Air Force Base. At the time of his death, he was the oldest retiree from McIntyre. He loved the military, but most of all he loved his Lord Jesus Christ.

A special thanks goes to Lexington Medical Center, 6th floor South, Lexington Extended Care, Camelia
Court, to Katie Willingham, his caregiver, for such special care in his last months of life, and to all his "special" breakfast friends at Hardees in Lexington whom he loved so very much. Online Register Barr-Price.com 803-356-4411
