He grew up on a farm in the Central City community where he graduated from high school. He was baptized in the Methodist Church and was confirmed in the Lutheran faith after his marriage.

His permanent work in lumber trade took him to several places but worked in Northboro, Iowa before coming to Audubon to manage United Building Center 1 1/2 years ago.
