He later retired in New Orleans as a Federal Accountant for the U.S. Navy. Following his retirement, he spent most of his time at his camp on Grand Isle doing what he loved to do most: fishing and spending time with his friends. He will be fondly remembered by his quick wit and kindness to all. He will be missed by all who knew him, especially his close friends, Terry Schwing, Janet Bickham and his laughing buddy, Kevin Schillage.
