He married Amber Geraldine Waters on Sept. 23, 1934, and they had four children. He actively farmed near Whitten until 1968 when they decided to move into Conrad. Luther was always active in soil conservation practices. He practiced contour planting on his farm near Whitten. In 1949 he hosted the Soil Conservation Field Day on a farm he owned near Grundy Center. In 1981 he received first place in the Iowa Soil Conservation Regional 6 contest for terracing work he did on a farm near Albion.
