He received a bachelor’s in Electrical Engineering from Manhattan College in Riverdale, NY in 1940. He married Margaret “Pat” Wulkow in 1953. Pat preceded him in death in 1989.

There he worked for Admiral Hyman Rickover in Washington DC.

After his retirement in 1982, he moved to Hilton Head, So. Carolina, where he lived in the Palmetto Dunes plantation.

In 1944, he received dual citizenship and an Irish passport, which he was quite proud of.
