I like to volunteer at my Church, local Christian School and in my community and spend time with my family.
My wife, Danette, and I are blessed with four children. Derek is a pastor in Chicagoland and married to Aubrey. They have two children, our grandchildren, Elsie and Robert. Natalie is a Doctor of Nursing Practice at the Medical ICU at Northwestern Hospital in Chicago and is married to Eric. Evan is a Clinical Psychologist in Des Moines, Iowa. Renee is in Human Resources at a Global Insurance Company in Omaha and is married to Darin.
Our family loves Door County.
I had a paper route – good tips!
I love to travel with my wife, Danette. I am a huge sports fan – Chicago teams (where I grew up) – especially the Cubs – this is the year! Now my favorite activity is being “Papa” to our grandchildren.
