Married Sue Cooper (who also graduated from M-RH) in 1962. Sue was pregnant, but died of a tubal embolism in August, 1963. God helped me through this tough time with His continusing presence. I continued teaching English at Liberty, Mo.

Met my present wife, Cecilia (Ceci) Paredes there. We have been maried since 1968 and have three grown children. We have three grandchildren.

College I had a great time while at William Jewell College. I didn't have a car the first year, but did for the remaining years. I pledged Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity and lived in their house after my first year. My roommate during those years was a great friend and Christian Bill Garrett. I was active in the Baptist Student Union, the fraternity, and vocal music. I was in the A Capella Choir for two years and pledged a honorary music fraternity Phi Mu Alpha Sinfornia. I attended the University of Missouri (Columbia) in two segments:one the summer of 1963 (after which my wife Sue died)and the year 1968-69 during which I finished my Master of Education in Remedial Reading. I also was awaraded a sabbatical year of study (1978-80) at the University of Alabama in which I was awarded Educational Specialist in Curriculum Development and Supervision. I have taken numerous courses since in San Jose, Costa Rica; Bogota, Colombia; St.Louis, MO and in Panama.
