I married my wife, Linda, the weekend after I finished at RIT and went to work for General Motors in Massena until 1969 when I left to take a teaching position at Canton College of Technology where I finished my working career. I retired in 1999 and have been enjoying the retired years along with my wife every since. We are still living in Canton, NY and have started to travel a little bit.
