Faith was important to Hubert. He was baptized at Riverside Methodist Church, was a member of Handley United Methodist Church until it closed in 2018, and most recently Meadowbrook United Methodist Church.
As a person with a servant's heart, Hubert was devoted to his family. He cared for ageing parents until their deaths. He not only cared for his brother, Gene, until his death in 2009, but he volunteered at the group home where Gene lived.
Hubert was a passionate dog lover. Caring for and walking his dog brought him joy.
