Milton graduated from Sloan-Hendrix Academy in Imboden, Arkansas in 1957.  His class had planned and saved for four years in order to be able to take a special class trip.  They chose to go to Cuba, and they did so.  It is a class trip which will never be forgotten by any of them.  For after four years of having car washes, bake sales, and other money-raising events in order to accumulate the funds for the trip, they landed in Cuba the very day of Castro's coup and instead of staying a few days in Cuba they stayed a few hours.¹

Milton was an inventor and had inventions on the market for which he owned patents.  He was a songwriter and an all-around fun guy who had the ability to talk so much like a Cajun he was sometimes mistaken for one.¹
