About

I married Karen in 1969 after serving a year in Viet Nam. We have 4 children: 3 sons and a daughter. We have 13 grandchildren. I served in the U.S. Army for 22 years and retired as a Master Sergeant/First Sergeant E8. We had also had 2 tours in Germany (Mannheim and Kaiserslautern)and I went to Korea for a year. Our stateside posts were Fort Lewis, WA; Fort Riley, KS; and Fort Jackson, SC. I went back to college in 1989 and received bachelors degrees in Microcomputer applications and Business Management. We have lived in Lacey, WA since 1985. We belong to Sunbreak Missionary Baptist Church.
