He was the youngest of seven children. He served in the Navy during World War II as an aerial gunner and flew in a weather reconnaissance Navy squadron in the South Pacific. He was also a proud member of the Burbank Police Department from 1956 to his retirement in 1984. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, camping, restoring cars, playing tennis and was the ultimate handyman.
