Life
High School Memories: Marching in the mud, the Cop car, as a sophomore briefly (very) dating a senior, getting smeared across the mat in wrestling (repeatedly), missing both proms due to sickness (hers in '73, then mine in '74), good friends, and a few great teachers!

Most important job I have is being a good Dad. Got married in 1987 to Janet Ham from Plainfield, IL. We have 7 children: Leah(12), Joe(10), Catherine(8), Michael(6), Maren(5), Lydia(3), and Jonathan (2!!). Janet manages our home better than most CEO's run their companies, and additionally homeschools our precious gifts. I am currently self-employed in the financial services industry in Silverdale. Life on the Kitsap peninsula is great!
