Cy graduated from Millikin in 1950 with a Bachelor of Science degree, was commissioned a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, and a few weeks later, the Korean Conflict began. Cy was called to active duty and assigned to the Second Marine Division in Camp Lejeune, NC. His unit deployed to the Mediterranean, on standby off Lebanon, Israel and Syria. While later serving in Japan, he met Winifred "Win" Rankin, a bright and beautiful DOD school teacher, on a blind date for the Marine Corps Birthday Ball. Immediately smitten, after a brief courtship he proposed on New Year's Eve, she accepted, and they married 23, 1955 in Corsicana, Texas. Cy and Win began their family life together and had two sons, George and David. Cy completed over 23 years of active duty in the Marine Corps, and retired from military service, a veteran of World War II, Korea and Vietnam. Cy and his family moved to Phoenix in 1968 to raise their sons. Cy was an outgoing conversationalist, mentor, provider, and protector, often bold and outspoken.
