According to his obituary, “He earned the rank of Eagle Scout and served as a camp counselor at Camp Sunshine and Camp Ernst, instilling values of character and service that guided him throughout his life. A proud alumnus of Miami University of Ohio, he excelled as president of Beta Theta Pi fraternity, editor of the university magazine, and a distinguished graduate of the Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps (NROTC), selecting the Marine Corps for his service.”
