In 1938 he received his pilot’s license at the Barre-Montpelier Airport. After Air Cadet training at Washington State College and serving his country during WW2, he received his A&E license from the Dallas Aviation School in 1948. In 1952 he built Herbs Garage at the intersection of Route 2 and the Truck Route (Drapers Corners) in Alburg Center Vermont. He Married Eileen Cameron and with her considerable book keeping experience, the two ran the business for 17yrs.
