About Me

Upon graduating Kanty, I attended Georgetown University, from where I matriculated in 1958 with a BSFS - BS in Foreign Service. I never did go into government service (glad I didn't)and through a very circuitous route, I ended up in the family bakery business in Philadlephia, where I stayed until 1988 when the business was liquidated.
Since 1992, my wife of 51 years and i have lived in Scottsdale, AZ. We have 6 kids and 7 grandkids scasttered throughout the West.
