He was an avid Ham radio operator from 1934 until shortly before his death. In the early 1950’s, his interest in RTTY (radio teletype) led to his becoming the second Amateur Radio RTTY station in the state.

As a young man, he found joy in singing. He sang in the choirs of First Methodist Church, First Presbyterian Church, and a Congregational Church. He was also a charter member of the Mastersingers Chorus of Racine. The Theater was also in his blood.
