A proud graduate of Motley High School, Ira built a life rooted in hard work and service. He began his career at Mitchell Machinery, later serving as a maintenance man at Magnolia Tennis Court.

Whether it was a small repair or a larger task, he was always willing to lend his skills to help others.
