After a year of "schooling around" I joined the Navy and for four years I was on an aircraft carrier that toured the Med three times. Early during this time two major events took place that have made me who I am today. One was coming to know Jesus as my savior in a Salvation Army church in Smithfield, NC and the other was to marry the greatest woman I know, Annette 39 years ago. Our son Brack III was born the next year.
After the Navy I attended UNC and also Durham Tech. I worked for a couple of years for Channel Master Satellite Systems as a Design Engineer until God called us to be ministers in The Salvation Army. That was 1982 and we have been blessed beyond measure with a variety of appointments.
Work has let us travel to places I never thought possible. (Mexico, Canada, UK, France and others) In September of 2011 I am going to Russia for two weeks to lead the first ever Men's Ministry Conference there.
We love cruising (14 times) and Disney World. I love photography.
Brack III has his MBA and works for The Salvation Army in St Petersburg, Florida. He's married to a wonderful girl, Jennifer.
Currently our appointment has us in Atlanta. We retire in less than 4 years. My plan then is to be a cast member for Walt Disney World making other people as happy as I have been there.
