Appling High School class of 1962. I joined the US Air Force on August 1962 and served for more than twenty-six years, retiring in February 1989.
After retiring from the military, my second career placed me in public school as a teacher and an administrator. I retired from education in 2009 to devote my time to myself and my grandchildren. My travels have taken me to Europe, Asia, China, and South-East Asia. I have lived in forty-six of the fifty states, including Alaska and Hawaii. I completed my college education while in the military from seventeen different colleges and universities, earning degrees from five. Im married with two sons and a daughter with seven grandchildren. At present, I reside in Chicago, Illinois, with my lovely wife Gwendolyn. My hobbies are playing chess and cards with friends and family.voir moins
