Opened a retail store in Galvez Mall in 1990 and sold the rebuilt vintage pianos that was reworked in our shop on the strand. I also that summer opened a b-b-que in the mall also. Met my to be wife in mall and married in 1992 to a local lady named Rebecca Adler. The mall of the mainland in Texas City opened thus closing down the Galvez mall so I worked out of my house repairring, tuning pianos and building cabinets and specialty items for the Galveston Historical foundation. After our two daughters were born we moved to the mountains of N.C. out of Asheville so I would be near the lumber mills and kiln drying palnts cutting out about six middle men on the shipment of the lumber....

I want all who are reading this now to witness me thanking My God and Saviour Jesus Christ for all my blessing He has blessed me with in N.C. I thank Him for being with me in the valleys also that I had to walk thru out here(but never alone!) and for protecting my children as I always prayed for....
