Although he had a successful career in food service, it was not what defined him. He and his brother opened Armstrong Brothers Hardware @ 1960 and his brother expanded into real estate while Shorty made his career in food service. Afterwards, he spent the majority of his working life as a hands on supervisor of several construction crews for his brother's construction company. He was responsible for building many sub-divisions, retail centers, and office complexes in the Orange Park area. He also built several of his own homes, plus a house and various other buildings for some of his wife's relatives.
Uncle Shorty was a great role model and mentored several nephews through some of their life challenges and will be sorely missed and fondly remembered by all that knew, loved and respected him.
