Daniel's Story

After high school I stayed connected with the same small group of high friends while I was in college at the U of M and commuted. Got a BA, got married to Pat Beier,a nurse and went to Med School at the U of M with 8 other Robbinsdale classmates. Moved to California for internship, served in the US Public Health Service (in lieu of the draft) stationed in rural Tennessee for 2 years. Met some interesting people, learned a lot and realized I liked living in a small town/rural setting. Found a small town in the California foothills that needed a general practice doctor and moved there where I have lived ever since.Raised 2 children in a great place. Lived close to lakes, rivers, skiing, hiking, and made new friends. Coached soccer for 8 years, sang in the church choir, and was active in church leadership and activities. Discovered the joy of gardening and landscaping, woodshop crafts and the "joys" of remodeling, and got hooked on International travel. My wife, Pat, died of Ovarian Cancer after five years of treatment in 2004. Remarried in 2005 and feel very blessed. Retired from General Practice end of 2005 and working part time as medical director for a...Expand for more
company that manages HMO insurance benefits for patients in our community. Enjoy photography and travel to Europe and Asia. The hightlight was Kathmandu and a trek into a Himilayan village for a Rotary Medical/Dental clinic. My second wife died of lung cancer after we were together for 8 years. That was hard, but i had discovered resilience and a lot of changes. When i encountered Ginger, who is a psychotherapist, i found love again and a partner who had the skill to challenge me to grow in relationship. She was joyous and wise and we got married in 2016. I finally really retired in 2017 and remain active in the community. Good health is a gift that cannot be taken for granted, and am learning to live in the present to appreciate the simple miracles at hand. And, yes, stuff happens anyway. It is a choice what you make of it. 3 Favorite quotes: "No longer forward nor behind I look in hope or fear; But, grateful, take the good I find, the best of now and here." by John Greenleaf Whittier "Life is lived forward and understood backward" by Kirkegaard: "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there." by RUMI---
