He started the war with the PLDGs and was
transferred to the LERs to fight with the Regiment
in Italy where he was wounded and repatriated to
Canada as a casualty. He sustained gunshot and
shrapnel wounds and returned to Canada. After the
war, he was able to farm northeast of Taber where
he married and raised his family. After retiring from
farming, he became an avid golfer and pursued the
sport with great enthusiasm well into his eighties.
He eventually retired to Lethbridge where he has
resided until the time of his passing.
