About

I am a 73-year-old guy, married for the past 51 years to the fair and wonderful Brenda (Montgomery). After some early adult years in graduate education and highschool and university teaching, followed by some years of pastoral work, I've been located in Oklahoma City for the past 30 years, working with a health technology consulting company. I am almost fully retired, working just a few hours per week. Brenda and our family are the delight of my life--our two children are: son Aaron, a teacher of classical literature and languages; he is is married to Allison (music teacher and violinist) and has three children (Elisabeth 17, Nicholas 15, and Benjamin 8); and daughter Andrea, mother of Lydia (six-and-a-half). I consider it a special blessing to gather with all of my family each Sunday as we stand before God worshiping together!
