The last 15 years of his life he served the town of Mountain City as alderman and mayor. He was also a member of the Johnson County Industrial Commission at the time of his death. His desire to make a better life for his people made him an ardent proponent of industry for Johnson County.
His progressive leadership as a public servant while mayor was exemplified in the erection of the modern municipal building which he and his board of alderman made possible. It was one of his contributions of which he was proudest.
He is survived by his wife, the former Leona Greer, and a brother, Allen Robinson.
