He was born in Jacksonville Florida and has been resident of Gretna, LA for many years. He graduated from Behrman High School and attended LSU. He loved the outdoors, hunting and fishing. He so loved his family and often would be seen with one of the grandchildren at his side. He faithfully served the Lord through ministry for over 50 years. He was Pastor of Praise Fellowship Church in Algiers for twenty-two years and most recently attended and ministered through Church of Abundant Life and various other ministries.
