Do you want to get married?"  She said "yes", and they were married one-week later September 14, 1946.   They shared 66 happy and full years prior to her passing in 2012.  Honesty, loyalty, and hard-work punctuated his life in all areas of work from ranching, herding sheep, railroad runner, the car business and his career in the industrial bearing business primarily in SLC and Orem.  He loved spending time in Scofield at the cabin on the lake whether it was fishing, hunting, boating, water skiing, or dirt-biking, He was a terrific bowler, posting many scores in the 200+ range including a 289!  He was a fairly good golfer as well.
