After the Army they settled in San Angelo where he worked at Ethicon Inc. for 27 years and retired in 1995. Upon his retirement, Popo enjoyed serving our Lord at St. Margaret’s Catholic Church. Popo also never met a stranger; in fact, it was said of him that he knew half the people in San Angelo, and the other half knew him. Most of all, Popo loved being surrounded by family and friends in his home as they gathered around his table for food, lots of story sharing and laughs. Surely, Popo will be missed but not forgotten.
