When he returned home with only forty dollars to his name, he married his wartime sweetheart, Carolyn, and began a challenging career selling insurance in New York. In 1962 he jumped at a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, picked up everything he owned, and moved his family to the Virgin Islands where he began a number of businesses on St. Croix including The Town Wheel restaurant, and Vimark ship chandlering operation. He took an early retirement in 1982 and resettled to Belen, NM where he devoted himself to traveling the world, involving himself in his community, and hosting many family gatherings including a 50th wedding anniversary tour of Italy accompanied by 14 family members.
