He was born and raised in Mountain View, Missouri and worked in the family store. He is survived by his sister, Mary Adeline Penninger Logvin; his brother in law, John Cooper; and many nieces and nephews. In his later years, he lived in Orlando, Florida, close to his sister, and worked at Publix. He was a gentle loving man, laughed much, and was a happy person. He is now celebrating in heaven with Jesus and his family.
