Graduated from Augustana College in 1975. Married my wife, Mindi (Long) Samuelson '72 May 7, 1977. Started working as a food broker August 2, 1977. Raised with three beautiful daughters; Angela, Laura and Sheena. Lived over 30 years in Peoria, Illinois. Sadly, lost our oldest daughter, Angela in 2008 to cancer. We have been blessed with six grandchildren since her passing. Laura & her husband, Nate, have four children. Gavin, born 2009, Alivia, born 2011, Noelle, born 2013 and Faith, born 2018. They live in Plainfield, Illinois. Sheena and her husband, Blake, have two children. Maeve, born 2016 and Hunter, born 2018. They live in Arlington Heights, Illinois. Mindi, retired as a Registered Nurse in 2020. We downsized and sold our house in Peoria, April 15, 2021. We bought a home in a Dell Webb 55+ community, Shorewood Glen, in Shorewood, Illinois. I retired April 8, 2022 after 45 years as a food broker. Looking forward to spending more time with kids/grandkids, travel and play more golf.
