Robert's Story
Life
My wife Pat and I are coming up on our 33rd wedding anniversary this year. We have had a lot of years together & expect quite a few more. We have 3 sons but 2 of them are really men now- ages 26 and 23, in the Army National Guard. Our youngest is through his first year of college. Pat has been a Med Tech for 35 years now.

I try to stay in shape by lifting weights and (sometimes) running. I've been rated a national chess expert, CSU chess team captain, and played in a couple World Open tournaments. ( It sounds elite, but they're open to anyone in the world).

For the last sixyears I've been doing some lapidary work - cutting and mounting gemstones and other semi-precious stones.
