On January 23, 1971, Bubba was united in marriage to Joyce Smith. He worked as an electrical sales manager for Houston Wire and Cable for over 30 years.  His customers were friends first and customers second.   Bubba enjoyed watching sports and westerns. It didn’t matter what sport or western was on, he loved watching them.  What he loved most was drinking beer and telling stories. His stories would always start out, “We were riding around drinking beer”. Whenever Bubba had free time, he loved going to the Cowboy Camp in Del Rio to spend time with his friends.  While at the Cowboy Camp, Bubba always wore his top hat and had a beer in one hand and a cigar in the other one.

No matter where Bubba and Joyce went on their travels, they always ran into someone that Bubba knew.

Bubba was a good friend and was loved by all.
