He then attended the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena and received his Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering in 1937. He retired after serving for 47 years at the Fluor Corporation. Fluor retained him in 1937 as a Cooling Tower Design Engineer. In 1948 he started the Gas and Gasoline Division for Fluor in Houston, Texas. After numerous job promotions and transfers throughout the Western Hemisphere, Fluor appointed him Group Vice-President and member of the Board of Directors. His assignments over this period included supervision of operations for Fluor Engineers and Constructors, Inc.'s Western Hemisphere offices, and Senior Vice-President/General Manager of the Houston Division operation. His proudest achievement in his life was his family. He is survived by his son Philip and wife Cheryl of Houston, Texas; his daughter Ellen of Denver, Colorado; grandchildren Emily and Elizabeth Moncrief of Denver, Colorado; Vicki Hassman and husband Brian of Irvine; Tracy Mounts and husband Kevin; and great-grandchildren Matthew Bricker Mounts, Nicolas Mounts, and Sabrina Mounts of Moss Beach, California.

He enjoyed Sunday dinners with his granddaughter Vicki and husband Brian; spending time with his family at their vacation home in Vail, Colorado; taking walks in the park; and trout fishing, particularly at Lee's Ferry in Arizona.
