In 1951 they moved to a farm south of Waverly, Kansas, where they continued to farm and raise livestock. In 1994, he sold his beloved farm to move to Ottawa, Kansas, so he could be closer to Florence. Two years later he moved to Princeton, Kansas, where he put in a new home so he could take care of his wife and also to have a few cows to raise and a beautiful garden to tend which were two of his passions in life. In the last year and two months he had resided at Ottawa Vintage Park assisted living.
