He married Anna in March of 1978, they lived in Cincinnati for a number of years before moving to Morrow Ohio and then retiring to Bradenton.

He is survived by his daughters, AJ Schlake and Jennifer Hammiel; son John Schlake as well as grandchildren Lucian Betz and Griffin Betz, Kole Gentry and Alex Gentry, Austin Schlake and Kassie Eves, and great-granddaughter Morgan Eves.
