Charles's Story
I'm now retired, after 30 years of working with IBM, 10 of them outside of the country. I live in Roanoke, Virginia with my wife Karen (formerly Milner), also a Leigh class of '63 graduate. We have one unmarried son, Carl, who lives in Washington, DC which is about a 4 hour drive from us, so we get to see him fairly frequently. We collect art, and enjoy drinking wine. We live in a condo, which makes it easy for us to travel, and we do that quite a bit. It also makes things easy for Karen, since it's all on one level, not too big, and has an elevator. She has MS, which limits her mobility and her vision,...Expand for more
but she still manages quite well. Our best friends from the Hudson Valley in New York moved to Roanoke a few months after we did, and wound up in the same condo, which makes it even nicer. I'm the Vice-President of the Home Owners Association. I spend quite a lot of time on genealogy, for my own family as well as for friends. I've discovered a strong ancestral link to Virginia, with many ancestors arriving in the Colonies well before the Revolutionary War, mostly, but not entirely, originating in the British Isles. I've also found ancestors who fought in every war from WW II to before the Revolution.
