About Me
I started teaching in 1970. I retired in 2001 for a month and taught 6 more years in alternative programs before retiring in 2007. I enjoy music: I play the guitar and like to sing and entertain. I enjoy traveling with my wife and family. I am an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and served a mission in France many years ago. My wife and I have been to Europe and Hawaii, and have traveled extensively in the US. I may walk slower...but I'm still walking...and enjoying life.
