He was an unpretentious, humble man, hard working and as Baptist as they come. His one brush with pretension was in being impressed and deluded by his future wife's family social standing. He paid and paid for that.

But, he did what he thought was right and didn't waver. Even his mother, my aunt, another staunch Baptist, tried to dissuade him from remaining married to her, that she was never capable of being a wife to him from the very outset and that he was deceived into the marriage, therefore it was not valid.

He stayed with her until he left this world. I doubt I could have done it, myself.
