Too many of us go through life without explaining to their children, grandchildren and friends what their childhood was like, what they did for a  living or creating a record of these events. The Web provides the perfect place to record these events for all to see.

These pages will grow incrementally and chronicle my life from my early youth until the present time. As I review these years I can honestly say that there is not a day that I would change. I have been blessed with wonderful parents, acceptable siblings, a wonderful wife, two fine sons, two wonderful daughter-in-laws, four grandchildren, one great grandchild and many, many wonderful friends. Although I am now totally retired, I keep busy doing many things to keep the body and mind functioning as well as possible.

Being in the military for many years, we were fortunate to travel to many interesting places. We moved into a retirement community in December 2005. In November 2006 my wife of 56 years made her final trip to a Heavenly home. I keep busy with many activities.

There are many photographs in this revised web site. Most are in a thumbnail size and they can be expanded to a full size by clicking on the thumbnail.

This is a complete revision of my web site. I have added text, many  photographs and icons. In the next few weeks and months I will add  additional text and icons.
