He was a resident of Lake Havasu City, born in Norwalk California to William and Essie Pinkerton. From childhood, he aspired to become an officer of the law.

After retirement, he volunteered as a deputy for the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office in Prescott. He owned his own business in Lake Havasu City.
