He attended the public schools of Ligonier, Pennsylvania, and also Duff's Business College, Pittsburgh, from which institution he graduated. Until his fifteenth year he assisted his father on the farm, the family then moving to Ligonier, after which the son was for eight years the father's assistant in the livery business. He then took and completed a course in the School of Anatomy, Pittsburgh, of which he was also a graduate. On December 4, 1912, he was licensed by the Pennsylvania State Board to conduct undertaking and embalming processes and the same year established himself in the furniture and undertaking business in Ligonier. He carried a large and attractive stock and had complete motor equipment, being the first to introduce that equipment into Ligonier. At one time he had the only motor ambulance in the Ligonier Valley.
