Arthur's Story
I finally entered the business world in 1968, after four years in the Marine Corps and an extended tour of South East Asia compliments of Uncle Sam.
IBM welcomed my type A personality with open arms and we enjoyed a symbiotic relationship that allowed me to work up to 110 hours a week for over thirty two years.
Four months after my retirement in 2000, I eagerly began another 7 1/2 year secondary career as a sub-contractor to IBM.

Yorktown, Williamsburg triangle, and home to the College of William & Mary.
Our oldest daughter and our son-in law live in Atlanta with our grandson, our son - who we are very proud of - is back in Iraq serving his second tour with the Army ( I could not convince him to join the Marine Corps), our two other daughters live in Falls Church, Va.
I now collect Social Security, play golf 3 - 4 times a week, and travel back and forth to Atlanta to see my grandson.
