After serving in the Army, then devoting years to working in industrial sales and finance, I found my career niche in public school education, teaching grades K-8. While working in the Medina City Schools, OH, I also developed a keen interest in creative writing which continues to inspire me in retirement. After the loss of my dearest wife, Joan, I spent the next decade exploring the beautiful Pacific Coast, sharing time and space with family and special friends in California and Oregon. But Rhode Island and the wild Atlantic finally called me back to where Joan and I had raised our family. My recent return to Rhody brings sweet memories and special meaning to ...Home Sweet Home. I keep busy with daily hiking, taking photos of wildlife, writing my children's stories, and traveling from coast to coast visiting my five, thirteen grandchildren, and three great ones, too. Life is smiles, few days without.
