Daniel's Story
Hi! Well,my life thus far has been a mix of excitement on one hand and fairly mundane on the other. I've been married three times,(my 2nd wife passed away)and have 6 great sons,5 of which are all grown up,and the last,Kyle is 14yrs old. Four of my adult sons live in Florida on the Gulf coast,and the other lives in Erie,as does my 14 yr old,and he lives with his mom not far from me. I've had lots of work experience in many fields from nursing work to
factory to cooking/delivery work to taxi driver. I enjoyed them all,got lots of good experience in many areas.
Now,I live alone happily,read the Bible
daily,go to church regularly,put God and family first in my life. Well,I could say a lot more but,thats my story
and I'm stickin' to it! Bye for now.
I always wanted to be a teacher when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a good idea. As it turns out, they were right.I have one younger bro-
ther Ron, 4yrs my junior,who lives about a mile from me in Erie.
I relax by just enjoying the outdoors or spendng time with family,friends.
If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have structure, cleanliness and details to be able to deal with the day-to-day.
Seriously,my only hero is Jesus Christ, God's Son.If we can only try to emulate Him a little,the world would be a better place.
I have lived in Erie most of my life
except for a year or so in...Expand for more
Jacksonville
Florida. But do to complications with my second oldest son's birth, we came back to Erie where health care was much better.
The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is my mother, because she passed on 2yrs ago,on Nov.
28th2007.
I like football,golf,tennis,any good game on tv and I like to play and watch pool/billiards and I'm not a bad shot myself!
If I could improve my home, I'd remodel bathroom and add on a rec room. My dream home would be by the beach.
My current age is 62. When I was 12, I thought that people my age now would be old and gray. I was so completely wrong.
Careerwise,I've had "good" jobs and not so good jobs but as I said earlier,I got a lot of good experience,and now,I work part-time at a Pizza Hut cause I want to and I get real enjoyment out of it,not to mention some good exercise.
My best friend would tell you I'm a good friend, but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as quiet,keep to myself.
My style of dress is pretty much the same as in high school.I dress casual most of the time,except for Church(suit&tie) or for work it's a uniform.
My first job was at the Dutch Pantry, where I got paid 1.25hr to bus tables. What I remember most about it is got a free hot lunch. Actually,I first was
at McDonalds on East Lake road making
.85cents an hour,can you believe it?
