He was severely injured in a wagon accident as a child but his attitude and perseverance won out. Before his death, he was named one of the ten greatest amateur athletes in the western hemisphere for the first half of the 20th century. He was one of the initial inductees as a Distinguished Member of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame in Stillwater, Oklahoma.
