Nel 1925 si è sposato con Ann Kennedy che è la mia bisnonna. Successivamente ha posseduto un bar a New York City, chiamato Avme Beer Garde eche fu aperto il 7 aprile 1933,lo stesso giorno in cui finì il proibizionismo! Dopo aver posseduto il bar è diventato un gioielliere di successo. Nel tempo libero faceva delle crociere con la mia bisnonna.
