At 2 years old he went to live with Cornelia and Diego Singh on a farm because of the harsh realities of the Great Depression; several years later he was reunited with his family. After moving to the Central Valley, he graduated from Sacramento High School and then went on to earn an Associate degree in the first graduating class of American River College.

He married Lupe Suarez on July 25, 1959.

During the Eisenhower administration, he began working in the Aero Space industry as a rocket engine instrumentation technician for Aero Jet, testing Titan and Apollo rocket engines.
