He took life as it came and made the most of it. He remained loyal to God, his country, his church, and his family. He left the world a better place than he found it, and he remains an inspiration to us all. We believe both his earthly father and his Heavenly Father will say to him, “Well done.”

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Louisiana War Veterans Home, 4739 Hwy. 10, Jackson, LA 70748.
