He was a graduate from White Sulphur High School and married the love of his life, Nancy, on June 11, 1965 and began his career with Westvaco, now Westrock. He started as a mill wright apprentice and retired from the Low Moore Converting Plant in 2009. One of his greatest accomplishments was getting his Bachelor’s degree from Kennedy Western University in 2000. He was proud of his children for getting their education and supported them in all their accomplishments. When he was able, he enjoyed hunting and traveling.
