He was never married and farmed with his parents most of his life living in the McGregor area. After his parents passed away, he remained on the farm until advancing age and failing health persuaded him to go to live in custodial home, first at Osborne and then at the Carriage House in McGregor.
Becoming critically ill about two weeks ago, he was taken by Rescue Squad, to the hospital in Prairie du Chien, Wisc., where he passed away.
He was preceded in death by his parents and his sister Laura.
