In his youth he accepted Christ and joined Linn Mennonite Church in Roanoke of which he is still a member. He was a life-long farmer pouring everything he had into the land he loved by Washburn. He was a hard worker spending many hours in his other business of repairing tractors for area farmers as well as working on CB radios for a hobby. He was gifted with an ability to fix almost anything people brought by for his repair, helping out many friends and neighbors in doing so. In his retirement years he enjoyed going out to the Snag Creek Golf Course Lake and riding his golf cart.
