His wife Arlyn married for the first time on September 13, 1969, to a man named John Lee Bottom. The ex-couple met while traveling through California. They worked for a religious organization named “The Children of God” after they were married.
It was a Christian missionary organization. Not only that, but the couple traveled to many new places together in order to increase public awareness of the religious organization.
Unfortunately, they learned it was a sex-dominant group. They eventually returned to the United States and lived in Florida. They had five children and lived a wonderful life.
