Charlie's Story
Hiya,
after having almost too much fun at REL, I began a long journey toward a degree.
After ten years of part time study and part time employment, I graduated with interesting analytical skills and the ability to solve complex tasks with computers. I found myself drawn to the world of public service.

When, my Dad passed, my Mother passed, my Mother-in-law, and Father-in-law passed, I said enough.
I decided to start again. This time I would leave a little time each day for my wife and family and living.
My wife and I live in our dream/retirement home, and I work in real estate services. I long to go back to teaching part time at the Junior College environment. I was honored to give back to environment that made such a difference for me.

No regrets.
Loving every day.
