Retired in 2002 from 39 years of working for the State of SD. I worked 5 1/2 years with the Highway Dept in Pierre and Aberdeen, and the rest of my State Employment was with the SD Dept of Labor, working in Huron, Aberdeen and Rapid City. I have been called back several times since retirement to do work for Labor.
We have 7 grandchildren, 4 boys and 3 girls.
Been involved with a bluegrass group since about 1984 or 85. Thanks to Harvey Tarr for my first guitar lessons during study hall time. And, thanks to Wayne McGruder and his younger brother for their additional lessons and encouragement along the way.
