He died July 23, 2014, in Louisville, Jefferson County, KY, at the age of 95 years, six months, and seven days. He was a member of Cloverleaf Baptist Church and was a 50 year member with Louisville Masonic Lodge #400. He had retired from B. F. Goodrich as a pipefitter & was a U. S. Army veteran of WWII and received a Purple Heart wounds received in combat in the Phillippines. He entered the Army in the 1st Cavalry Division, while the division still trained, bivouacked as cavalry, and rode in parades on horseback. After he was shipped to Australia in 1943 he became an infantryman, and it was as a foot soldier he received injuries which earned the Purple Heart. Because of his wounds - one in the arm and a later one in the leg - he was returned to the states. While aboard ship bound for San Francisco, the United States dropped the atomic bombs which brought an end to the war with Japan. The family lived in the Union neighborhood of Gradyville until 1952, when they moved to Louisville, KY. Survivors include his wife, Laura Clark, and the following:
