He was also preceded in death by his wife, Jean Clampitt Hollingsworth and a number of brothers, sisters, and cousins. He was born on November 22, 1923 in the Pink Beds area of Pisgah Forest, NC and grew up catching fawns for the U. S. Forest Service agents to increase the population.

He was a World War II Army Master Sergeant and a member of the National Guard. He was a Forest Ranger in the Pisgah Forest, Nantahala, Uwharrie, and Croaton districts for over 30 years. He was also a heavy equipment operator for Cantrell Construction on a number of projects which still can be seen in the Pisgah Forest and Brevard areas. He was an exceptional son, nephew, husband and grandfather who lived out his strong faith and passed it on to his family by demonstration.
