He was raised on a ranch in Marysvale, Utah by his parents, Glen and Edna Prince. After graduating from Marysvale High School in 1960, he attended the College of Southern Utah for one year. He then served a two-year mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Great Lakes Mission. After his mission, he attended Brigham Young University, in Provo, Utah, where he met his bride-to-be, Diana Christine Taylor. They were married on August 21, 1964 in the Manti Utah Temple. They started their lives together in Cincinnati, Ohio, but then moved to Marysvale, Utah to help his parents on the ranch.

Anytime his son Shane had projects like building a deck or trimming trees, he volunteered to do it with him. He never shied away from work.
