This began a 3 year period that one could call a million dollar education or experience , but yet as we look back at what we went thru ,I would not give a plug nickel for an other one , lucky as we were , to make it safely back a whole man. My heart Embraces my Bros. who gave so much...! We met & married while in the Army , a young lady from Ga. we spent most of our life on the road , as the owner of a tractor trailer , heavey hauling for Pacific Inter mountain Express . We managed to stop home long enough to go in the hospital in Burlingtin to have a N.D.E. .

les ,back to the real world . I remember feeling like we needed to apologize to the world & learn to live a far softer , kinder life..Quite a few years later we were involved in a accident the would end in the loss of our career two years of healing & then back to school . If someone had told us we would go back at 45 years old , well it just wouldn't have worked , but it did . Career change into the heating , Air Conditioning & Refrigeration business. Long story shortened to No one wanted a 45 year old with a bad back , So guess who went into business. One really neat thing was our first job was for Badger's own Joan Starty Daniels on some commercial property , way kool...! we worked for 9 years & sold out & went out to Arizona . We lived in Az. for 2 years then to Milw, Madison & on to Viroqua & a loving partner ani't life sweet ?
