He served 4 years with the US Army as a Military Police Officer in Frankfurt Germany, returning to Western, NY to own and operate a dairy Farm of Distinction in Clymer, NY. After selling the farm, he pursued a career and retired from the Farm Service Agency with the US Department of Agriculture in Chautauqua, NY.
