Born 1946, in Oregon. Happily married to the same lovely lady for 51 years. One Child and four terrific grandchildren (3 boys - 1 girl). I write and share my stories with the Chintimini Writers, Corvallis, Oregon, a place where where members share their stories each week with the rest of the group. My most recent literary accomplishment is Editor/compiler, with the assistance of Jerri Austin Marler, of "The Paths Taken". A compilation of prose and poetry by The Chintimini Writers, Corvallis, Oregon.
