He graduated from high school there and later from California State University, Long Beach.

He was honorably discharged in 1956 and returned to California. where was married to his first wife. He married Marion Jean Hann on August 31, 1963, and the pair shared more than thirty-eight years together before her passing in 2002. He was later married to Vivian (Nichols) Miner who also preceded him in passing on June 21, 2016; they shared more than ten years together.
