He married Lorraine Chappell, June 24, 1970 in the Manti LDS Temple. They were later divorced. Dad is an avid hunter, fisherman, expert camper and an excellent cook. He was fearless at four wheeling in his truck. He took his children on rides that were not for the faint at heart! Dad didn’t like the cold and wouldn’t go out if it was too cold.
