Kenneth's Story
COMPLETED HIGH SCHOOL, COLLEGE, MILITARY, 6 YEARS AS ASSISTANT MANAGER OF OSCO DRUG STORES LOCATED IN LOVES PARK, ILLINOIS, MANITOWOC, WISCONSIN AND CHAMPAIGN, ILLINOIS. WORKED FOR 25 YEARS FOR THE WM WRIGLEY JR COMPANY AS A MANAGER AND FIELD REP. RETIRED FROM WRIGLEY AND AM NOW RETIRED; HOWEVER, I WORK 35 HOURS A WEEK AT MY PARTTIME JOB MANAGING A SHIPPING, RECEIVING WAREHOUSE IN MT PLEASANT, SC.
I always wanted to be a MILITARY MAN when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a GOOD idea. As it turns out, they were RIGHT.
BEING RETIRED AND WORKING A NONPRESSURE JOB, WHEN NECESSAY I TAKE A NAP
If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have PEPSI, MUCH TO DO, and LUNCH TIME to be able to deal with the day-to-day.
MY HERO IS JESUS CHRIST BECAUSE OF HIS UNLIMITED IMPACT IN THIS WORLD
The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is DENNIS PETTINGILL, because HE TAUGHT ME A WIDER CIRCLE OF FRIENDS IS WHAT TO STRIVE FOR.
WATCHING CSI MIAMI AND NEW YORK, LAW AND ORDER SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT AND MORE
If I could improve my home, I'd remodel THE BASEMENT and add on a SEPARATE PLACE FOR AN OFFICE. My dream home would be ON THE SHORE OF THE PACIFIC OCEAN.
THEY ARE MY MOST PRECIOUS FRIENDS WHO HAVE MADE ME GROW UP A...Expand for more
ND BECOME MORE LOVING
If I won $100 million, I'd give MOST of it to MY CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN, then spend the rest on TRAVEL, HOME and INVESTMENTS.
THE DORMS I LIVED IN WERE IN THE MILITARY FOR FOUR YEARS
My current age is 65. When I was 12, I thought that people my age now would be OLD AS CAN BE. I was so completely NAIVE.
I AM RETIRED BUT STILL WORK 35 HOURS A WEEK
My best friend would tell you I'm LOYAL, but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as MULTIPLE PERSONALITIES DEPENDING ON WHO IS VOICING THE OPINION.
NO, MY CURRENT UNIFORM OF THE DAY IS SHORTS AND SANDALS AND COOL-LIGHT SHIRTS.
I share my home with MY WIFE, which I find UNBELIEVABLY TALENTED.
WON A GOLD MEDAL ART AWARD FOR A CLAY MODEL OF A PIG WHEN I WAS A FRESHMAN IN HIGH SCHOOL, THE NURSING PIG WAS NAMED "THE PRIDE OF IOWA."
In 10 years, I hope to be TOTALLY RETIRED. I'm going to get there by WORKING FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS.
MY OLDEST FRIEND I MET WHILE PLAYING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN I WAS ABOUT 10 YEARS OLD, WE BOTH LIKED TO HAVE FUN
My first job was at GAS STATION ATTENDANT, where I got paid ENOUGH to BUY THE CARS I WANTED SUCH AS A 409/425 CHEVY MUSCLE CAR. What I remember most about it is UNBELIEVALBE POWER AND FUN TO DRIVE.
