Milton was born on March 23, 1948, to Herbert Alonzo and Shirley Mae Prewitt Junkin in Cleveland. He graduated from Cleveland High School and later attended college in Texas.

Milton took great pride in his work as a carpenter, which he practiced for most of his life alongside his brother Roy. His hard work, dedication and commitment to his craft earned him a reputation as a skilled carpenter.
