After high school, he joined the United States Air Force where he proudly served for 4 years. After his service, he proposed to Romie, and they were married on August 20, 1976. They moved to Beeville, Texas when he started working for the family company, Texas Trucking Company, and they became parents to their only daughter, Jessica Nicole, in 1982.
