With faith in God, a love for his family, he accomplished so much in his lifetime and lived a full rewarding life. From Flora, Louisiana, and a long time resident of Prairieville, Louisiana. He served in the National Guard, retired from Exxon/Mobile Pipeline Company and continued working for Exxon in other countries. Later he began raising Brahman cattle; if you saw him on a tractor or in the pasture with Brahman cattle, you know he enjoyed it. Most of his favorite times was spent at his cabin in the  woods of Mississippi. So many good times were had traveling & skiing with grandchildren.

We will strive to honor his memory by living a life with values, integrity, respect, showing love and kindness as he did.
