I enjoy my work as a part-time nuclear med delivery driver and lab worker. I take daily walks and enjoy an occasional round of golf.
A trip to Israel was very rewarding for my study of Scripture.
We enjoy visits with our children and four grandchildren.
I graduated from Calvin with an AB degree in Education and from WMU with a MA degree in Education I taught school for fourteen years and was employed by FedEx for twenty three years. I have been delivering Nuclear Med part time for Cardinal Health for the last fifteen years.
The extent of my travels has been to Europe and Israel and some eastern and western states as well as to parts of Canada.
I especially enjoyed our band rehearsals in the old Madison Av. bldg and the time Mr. Vander Puy allowed us to practice ensembles in the basement "dungeon".
Especially memorable was our band trip to Wisc. where we gave a concert in Mr. Vander Puy's home town.
I would love to go back in time and attend one more third floor Latin class of Gordie Bos and an English class of Homer Vander Mey. Priceless!
