Shortly after, he met the love of his life, Margaret Griffith. They were married on March 30, 1952. They had one daughter Karen. Margaret became ill with cancer when Karen was very young.

Due to his failing health he was moved to Third Crossing Manor in January 2008. Here he adjusted to a new lifestyle again. He enjoyed and appreciated the staff and the excellent care they gave him. He also appreciated visits from friends and family. This meant a lot to him, especially these past few months. His biggest pleasure was his grandchildren. He was their greatest fan. He rarely missed any of their events and became “Grandpa” to many friends over the years. He was at all their 4-H competitions, horse shows, rodeos, band concerts, and the list could go on. He taught them many life lessons by example and was very patient, open-minded and could relate to all age groups. He loved jokes and had a great sense of humour, loved dancing, camping and just being with people. He was so happy to see Gladstone’s 125th, his 90th birthday and his first grandchild’s wedding.
