Married 38 years , have 2 champion golden retrievers, swim them at Dewey Beach,DE every year and Erie,PA. Have had to say good-bye sadly to six of the eight Goldens we have had since 1991, I am convinced they have souls and are the greatest companions you could have.Will see them when we all meet again in heaven as per Popes John Paul II and Francis.

Presque Isle ruuuules!!! am also a Civil War buff and U.S. History fan(Thank you John B. Polivka). Date of birth 2/14/61. My two sons are my greatest accomplishments as they will be far greater than I. That's the whole idea.E-mail me anytime, would love to know what you're up to.johncneil411@gmail.com and if you ever go to Dewey Beach, DE be sure to bring your dogs and get Franco's Pizza !!! Looking forward to retirement and becoming a full-time "Pappy". I am now retired effective March 1, 2023. Yay!!! I maintain an active funeral director license at William Snyder Funeral Home in Irwin.

School Story:

McCorkle,Boes Rizzardi,Gillis,Nancy Matko,Gardner,McKnight,Reese,Cornell,Vernail,Moore,Elaine Potts, Nancy Shorsher,but the greatest of these was one John B. Polivka whom I would have emulated had I not become a funeral director. Mr. P made history come alive as he remains the single greatest teacher I have ever had, including college.Rest in peace Mr. P. Our heroes await you in heaven to thank you for telling their stories.I am a student of the American Civil War to this day.Many thanks to Jerry Vernail for my interest in politics and economics.
