He served his country in the US Army National Guard for three years. He also worked for J.C. Evan Construction Company for twelve years before moving on to work for AISD where he retired at the age of sixty.
He married Elma Garcia in January, 1963 and had two beautiful children, Ida and Tommy Golden. He enjoyed and loved nature and the outdoors, especially fishing which he loved the most. He had a saying, “A bad day fishing is still a good day.” He was a simple man who didn’t need much to make him happy (family, fishing, friends). He also loved his classic western shows.
He is survived by his wife Elma Golden, daughter Ida Golden, and son Tommy Golden. Also many other relatives from San Marcos, Texas and Corpus Christi, Texas.
