He was a machinist at AEDC for many years where he retired. He went on to enjoy his love of farming and raising cattle. He enjoyed many days on the lake fishing and enjoyed sharing his catches with his friends and family. He even tried to help people, especially Lavon. They were all fishing one time and Carmon and Ruth were the only ones catching fish. Lavon and his friend were right behind them doing the same thing they were doing.
