He served in the East German Mission from 1937-1939 for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In October of 2001, he and his wife fulfilled a lifelong dream by returning to the countries where he served his mission. During his life, he devoted much of his time to the church, serving in the Bishopric of the Roberts and Springdale Wards, on the Declo Stake High Council, and in many other capacities. He and his wife served as missionaries in the Arizona Holbrook Mission among the Apache Indians. His favorite church calling was serving with his wife as home teachers to the widows in the Springdale First Ward. He was a prominent farmer in Burley, doing what he loved best. Before settling in Burley, he farmed in Tremonton, Utah, Ucon and Roberts, Idaho.
He is survived by his wife, Inez, and all nine children and their spouses. His 50 grandchildren and 48 great-grandchildren and still counting brought great joy to his life.
