He was born on April 4, 1932 to the late Tommy Bryant and Minnie Smith Lancaster and raised in the Patetown community. In 1952 he joined the United States Navy and served aboard the USS Eugene during the Korean War. He returned home to Patetown in 1956 when his tour of duty was over. In 1959, he met the love of his life, Grace Daniels Lancaster, and they were married on Christmas Eve of that year and had 47 years together before she passed away in May, 2006. He was a meatcutter by trade, having worked for Thomas Hardee for over 25 yrs at Mar Mac Food Store and Brookside Open Air Market.

He had worked at the Food Lion, Edgemont Meats, Joyners Supermarket, Piggly Wiggly and at Hill's Beef & Pork.

Church where he had served in the capacity of Deacon, Sunday School Superintendent, Choir Director and taught the Adult Bible School Class for over 20 years. He was a great inspiration to all those who knew him and blessed many with his teachings and his beautiful voice in song. He never passed up an opportunity to witness for his Lord and to tell people of God's many blessings in his life and that of his family. The loves of his life were God, family, church, and friends.
