William's Story

Life Hey fellow CL friends! I'm married with 3 kids, 2 in-laws and 1 grandson. I have been living, working and skiing in Colorado for 13 years, after 10 year stretches in AZ and MO, and a 2 year sentence in OK. Lisa and I celebrated our 25th anniversary in 2009. Our two oldest kids are married and have their careers started. Our first grandson, Stanley, was born on 11/8/10 and is the world's cutest. Hard to believe time is passing by so quickly. I work for Lorillard Tobacco Co. Been with them since 1982. I have a BSBA in Marketing from Northern AZ University in beautiful Flagstaff. I currently supervise six Sales Reps in CO and WY, as Division Manager of Denver. Still have cats around the house, 2 currently. Still ski of course, kids all snowboard. Occasionally get out on the bike, and I'm learning to fly fish. Hobbies include collecting baseball cards - NO MORE (anyone want to buy a large collection?), attending baseball games, collecting tobacciana as well as Budweiser steins. Still into music and garage sales. I run a hobby business selling used board games.with about 2000 in stock and over 300 in my personal collection. I try to play at le...Expand for more
ast one night each week. Look me up sometime and book a ski vacation or a trip to Coors Field. I'm always up for either. Just don't ask me to support the Broncos (Denver Donkeys!) Go Chiefs!!! College A tour of the schools of Arizona, that's how I describe my schooling... I attended ASU for one year... I attended Yavapai College in Prescott for two years and graduated with an AA in Business with an emphasis in Small Business Management. I finished at NAU with a Bachelors Degree in Marketing. Flagstaff is a wonderful city, and I'm really glad I didn't return to ASU. I met a lot of wonderful students there including my wife, Lisa. My 1st child, Amy, was born in Flagstaff. Workplace I started as a Sales Rep for Lorillard in Flagstaff, AZ - Dec. 1982. After a few years, I traded territories and moved to Phoenix. In Jan. 1987, I was promoted to Assistant Division Manager in Oklahoma City, 2 years later I got my first Division - Kansas City, MO. We loved it in KC and planned to retire from there. After 10 years, however, the company decided to relocate us to crowded, expensive Denver, CO. We don't hate it here per se, but it's no midwest city.
