Frank's Story

Life Graduated from Univ. of Oregon ('74); became Systems Analyst / Programmer in Southern California for 18 years. Changed directions and opened a Game Store in Texas in '92. Moved to Tuscaloosa, Alabama and took store with me, in '04. Sold store at end of 2007. Met my wife at U of Oregon, we have 2 daughters, each married and each has an infant daughter, now. Older daughter is 4th yr. Med student, younger daughter finishing her Ph.D. Thus, I am very pleased with my family and the life we've had. Currently, I travel with my wife when she gets sent to exciting/exotic places. She travels a great deal, so I have lots of chances to pick times we can spend together. As I write this, we are headed to Lisbon for a conference she's been selected to attend. We've been around the world, had several trips to Europe, and explore the local regions, as well. I've always been a "gamer" ... those that remember me will remember the Avalon Hill wargames that filled my spare time. Having my own store dedicated to my hobby was a complete joy for me. My health and stress levels are dramatically reduced from my days of Corporate Middle Management. I have continued to be an avid fan of the Dallas Cowboys.

oming a part of the fanatical culture in Dallas when we moved to Texas. I had season tickets there for a while and took my daughters to the games. Now, my younger daughter is probably a more extreme fan than even I am. Throughout our years at HHS, I worked at the Y-Camp in Jemez Springs. Camping was a large part of my life, as was athletics (like Track.) However, my wife sees going to the Hilton as "camping" enough for her ... so my camping and hiking days have passed on. Instead, we travel and explore, enjoying the experience of different cultures and lifestyles from those we know at home. At the end of 2007, I sold my game store, and followed my wife back to Texas ... San Antonio this time. My older daughter then matched in San Antonio for her Residency, and moved in with us while her husband tried to get a transfer here from Delaware, as well. I was drafted for assisting child care of our granddaughter, which has been wonderfully fulfilling. We finally built a new home and have moved into a more comfortable situation. I have over 500 boxes of "stuff" from the last 4 places we've lived that need careful purging ... I'll be busy for a while. Maybe my wife's claims that I'm retired are more valid than I expected. We'll see what 2010 brings.
