Michael's Story
After graduating from Hope College (Holland MI) in 1973, I joined IBM, living in Akron, Dallas, Minneapolis, Poughkeepsie, and Owego NY. After 41 years, IBM fired me because of age. In 2017 I retired to Haines Falls NY.
I got married in 1989. My first wife and I owned a bed and breakfast in Owego NY from 2004-8. You can see it at pumpellyhouse.com. We sold it in February 2008.
We have three kids (that were homeschooled until 2007) born in 1991, 1993, and 1995. They did well in public school (90 averages). They now live in Texas, Georgia, and New York. Two are married.
In January 2007 my wife decided to separate ...Expand for more
and take the children. The divorce was final in 2009.
In July 2007 I had a quadruple bypass heart operation. I now eat healthier and exercise more, mostly riding my bicycle. In August 2009 I rode my first century ride (100 miles in a day). In July 2012 I rode Ragbrai, 480 miles across Iowa in a week, tent camping each night.
My current car is a 2015 Infiniti QX70, which for me is the perfect car, sporty and luxurious yet practical.
In 2014 I met my current wife, Kathy. We married in 2015. We bought a boat and did the Great Loop from 2016 through 2019. She is a ski instructor and we live close to Hunter Mountain.
