I joined the Air Force in 1968 where I entered the communications electronics career field.

I met Satoko (Toko) while stationed in Japan in 1972. We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary February 7, 2023.

I retired form the air force in 1989 as a Senior Master Sergeant. It was a great period in our lives. We lived in Azores, Japan, Germany and Italy while I was on active duty.

Retired as Director Distribution Facilities, Public Broadcasting Service September 4, 2016

I joined a government contracting firm doing engineering work in south and central America for a year and half before joining PBS in 1990. I am still employed by PBS as their Director of Distribution Facilities. I manage the support contracts and support the PBS television network program distribution facilities in the National Capital Area. PBS distributes programming to more than 350 local public Television stations nation wide.

Toko and I stay physically active with hiking and mountain biking. I also enjoy fishing and amateur radio. I am a volunteer FCC license examiner and very much enjoy helping young people develop an interest in electronics. I assist them in learning about and planning for academic programs which will seed our next generation of Broadcast and Satellite engineers.

Toko and I love to travel. We recently vacationed in Kyushu, Japan.

I've often wondered about my class mates and wished that I knew how your lives were progressing.

I'm thankful to be blessed with a wonderful wife, two beautiful daughters, two great son-in-laws and two gorgeous grand daughters (twins) and two energetic and rambunctious grand sons.

For me, life is wonderful, still filled with magic and opportunities and future adventures.

I express my best wishes to all of my class mates from the school of the Flying Eagles, 1968.
