After spending 45 years in Brazil having only spoken Portuguese the whole time, I am now pastoring an English speaking church in Sao Paulo. Gavin I always wanted to be a missionary when I grew up.

If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have the proper tools, people skills, and the proper attitude to be able to deal with the day-to-day. My hero was always Abraham Lincoln, his desire to be truthful. The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is Richard Ricker, because he was my best friend. I love football and baseball. I watch CSI and I have two beautiful kittens. I lost my first wife with a heart attack. I then married a Brazilian. I brought two kids to the family, she brought four boys. What a surprise. My son has taught me stick-to-it-ness and my daughter has taught be to be lovable.
