He attended Phyllis Wheatley School in Gibson Station, Carter G. Woodson High School in Tullahassee, OK, and later earned a certificate in Diesel Mechanics from Indian Capital Technology Center in Muskogee. Throughout the years he worked as a laborer and was well known for his ability to train horses. In his free time he enjoyed fishing, coon hunting, driving his classic cars, horseback riding, spending time with family, and most definitely eating.
