On February 28th in 1964 he married the love of his life, Glenda (Boling) Vandergriff. They went on to have two children, Eric Vandergriff of Pocahontas, AR and Lateice Gartman of Jonesboro, AR.

He spent 29 years at Brown Shoe Company and pastored the Pocahontas Pentecostal Church of God for 32 years before retirement.
