About Me
I am a 63 year old man. I have 5 children and 15 grandchildren. I was a farm manager and owner all my life. The last 10 years I have worked in the Ag Consulting business. I have been married for 36 years to a wonderful woman. We enjoyed traveling, 4-wheeling, hunting, fishing and camping with our friends and family. I am very involved in my church, holding leadership positions throughout my life. Religion and faith in God is so important during this time in one's journey. I have been very active during my illness. I can not speak or move now but I feel good and us a computer to speak.
