His work life began at age 9 where he was employed by Muir-Roberts, Co., a fresh produce packer and shipper where he was entrusted with gluing labels on shipping crates. His employment with Muir Roberts would last a lifetime where at retirement he was President and CEO of the company. He graduated from Brigham Young High School in the Class of 1950. The youngest of 5 siblings, he was always trying to keep up with older brothers which honed his skill as an athlete. BYU where he played freshman basketball.
