He was a true and honest man. He worked in the oil field for about 40 years or more, and he never had a man hurt on his shift. He also worked as a Forester, putting out fires and saving the forest. He would rather help someone else rather than ask for help himself. He believed in God and that He was his savior. He loved to sit and talk to people. His favorite saying was: STOP, LOOK, AND LISTEN AND THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK OUT LOUD.
