I was born and raised in Des Moines, Iowa. After high school graduation, I
attended the University of Northen Iowa in Cedar Falls pursuing a degree in
Vocal Music Education. I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts Degree and set out
to find a music teaching position. I taught Jr. High and High School music
for two years in a small northeast Iowa community before moving to the Kansas
City, Mo. area. In K.C., I taught elementary music at a private Catholic
school.
I was married while living in K.C. to my college sweetheart, Denny. We will
celebrate our 38th wedding anniversary in December of 2007. We have three
grown and married children and three grandchildren. Mark, our oldest, lives
in Ft. Myers, Fl. where he operates his own engineering business. Mike lives
in the Dallas metroplex and is starting his own engineering business. Kristi
also lives in the Dallas metroplex and is a manager in the Human Resources
Department at Texans Credit Union.
I joined the St. Barnabas staff in May of 1998. Denny and I have lived in
Plano for 28 years and we are members of St. Luke's Lutheran Church next door
to St. B.
