I was married to Pat Stockwell (from Leamington) from 1970 to 1988 (divorce) and we have two daughters. The oldest (41) is married, living in Ingersoll, ON and is a Speech Therapist.

I remarried in 1991 to Janice Caldwell (from Chatham) and she moved to Michigan and today works as a Medical Assistance. We currently live on a small 5 acre ranch (Saw Dust Farms) in rural Addison Township, MI where the roads are all dirt and there are rolling hills, inland lakes with lots of deer, rabbits and birds.
Retired life is great. Everyone should be enjoying it.
