Ken's Story
Life
I retired from Gonzaga High in June 2005. 30 years as teacher, dept. head, vice-prin and (at times) acting prin. WOW !!! They were fantastic years. I hope that I was always fair with all I encountered. I tried my best ! Presently , I am the Executive Director ( Programs ) for the Newfoundland and Labrador Science Centre , as well as the SABC BioTechnology Director for NL ( GENESIS Group , MUN ) .My 4 children have all grown up. Jay(38), Joe(38), Jeff(34) and Juliana(31) have all done well for themselves.(2 dermatologists,1 mechanical engineer, and an environmental scientist)...they must take after their mom !! I have 3 lovely daughters-in-law, and 8 wonderful grandchildren. My wife, CaroleAnne, has the patience of Job with me--although I do get the occasional knock on the ...Expand for more
