I attended E.C.C. in the Civil Technology program and that led me to a job with a local engineering firm. Unfortunately the Vietnam War was going strong and I ended up in the Navy Seabees for four years with two tours in Vietnam. The last thirteen months were in Morocco (great duty) and we had our first son over there. In 1969, I married my high school sweetheart, Debbie, from that "other" school in Akron. We have three kids and two grandsons, Hayden and Ian.

I did ten more years with the engineering firm after the service and then took a position with the Town of Royalton in 1981 as the Code Enforcement Officer and Assessor (everybody loves me). It has been interesting working with all kinds of people, even some old classmates living in town! We built a house out in the country in 1987 on Johnson Rd. and are now empty nesters except for our dog and cat. We love to travel and enjoy cruises. I finally took up golf a couple of years ago and really enjoy it. I don't know if I will be good enough to play in July! God willing, we can retire in a few years and do the things retired people do (whatever that is). Looking forward to the reunion!
