Enlisted in the Marines while still in school, and went onto active duty in August. Served in North and South Carolina before going to Viet Nam in mid-1967. Came home in Summer, 1968 and went to Portsmouth, Virginia. Was severly injured and retired from the Marines in 1969.

Got my Bachelor's degree from Baldwin-Wallace in 1973 and attended CSU for a year pursuing a Master's.

Worked in the Corporate Headhunting game for about 23 years and then moved into capital goods sales. The economy and my creaking bones caught up with me and I officially retired in 2009

My better half and I spend time visiting our two grandsons here in the area and our daughters in St. John's, NF Canada and Tampa, FL. Warm weekends are spent on our boat on Sandusky Bay while we wait for Mary-Jo to retire from Principal-ing in the Cleveland School System.

It seems that our High School years have a way of keeping a hold on our minds and hearts.

What a trip!
