Ev was an Army veteran. He served from January, 1960, and was honorably discharged in March, 1966.

Ev started his career in banking and later went to work for H&R Block shortly after the company established its headquarters in Kansas City, Missouri. He rose up through the company to become Vice President of Eastern Operations. He retired after 35 years of service.

Ev and Maria enjoyed traveling and taking numerous cruises over the years. Ev also enjoyed being very active in their community in Sun City in Georgetown, Texas. He served on many committees and volunteer positions. His favorite activity was as a member of ACT TAG, a Sun City theater group. He performed in many plays and directed a few.
