He is also survived by nieces, nephews, other extended family and a lifetime of friends.

Services were held on Monday, March 3, 2025 at Checotah Church of Christ with Mr. Don Cherry and Mr. Cyrus Spears ministering. Committal prayers and interment followed at Greenlawn Cemetery in Checotah under the personal direction of John Garrett.
