Turner High School football games for 35 years. He served as President of the Dallas County Umpires Association  and the Carrollton Quarterback Club.  He also served on the Carrollton Parks & Recreation Board. Dutch was a quiet man, never complained, and was always willing to help others.  He always had a smile on his face and had an impact on everyone he met.
