Dan's Story
The year after Northwestern, I went to DeVry Tech school in Chicago, with Glenn Moore. That was a super fun experience, but lots of hard work as well. If you recall, Glenn's father was a Baptist Minister, and consequenty, we attended a small church there in Chicago, where I became a born again Christian. That made a big difference in the direction of my life! You may recall that I was a very fun loving and quite self centered guy, and maybe a bit on the wild side.....Maybe not so much on second thought. Well, I like to think that from that point in my life to now, is quite different than it would have been without having Christ in my life.
While there, a new friend talked me into joining the Navy on the buddy program, and letting them foot the bill for our education. My buddy backed out and I went through with it. I joined for six years in the Advanced Electronics Program. I made two cruises on the Kitty Hawk to the West Pacific. Though I was in the Navy, I was an "airdale". Stationed in the middle of the desert in California when not on cruises.
At the end of my first six year enlistment, I extended for recruiting duty and came back to Ann Arbor Michigan. That made a total of almost eight years in the Navy. Just as I was getting out I met Renee in Redford, MI. at Dunning Park Chapel. We were married in October of 81. Married two months before turning 30! When I got out ...Expand for more
of the Navy I worked for a relatively small computer company called Datapoint. The service division became Intelogic Trace, which went down the tubes after a total time with them of over 15 years, and I moved on to one other company before I started to work for IBM in 1996, and I am still at IBM.
Renee and I have four kids. Eric 26, now married and attending MSU. Teresa 24, and living in Chicago attending Harrison School of Design. Brian 18, Just graduated and will be attending Lansing Community College. Kathryn 16 is a junior and being home schooled. Renee and I have had some rough times mostly recently. From before High School I grew quite fond of Playboy magazines..... That turned into an "internet porn addiction", (just the free stuff)and Renee did not know of it til about the last five years or so. We have gone through some counseling and I am doing very good now. She has done well to put up with me, though I have been faithful to her except in my mind, and she is still with me. The counseling has helped me alot, but it was not until we started meeting with a couple who are "Marriage Mentors", that we are now both on the same page, and doing much better. Renee describes it as being newly married and on our honeymoon.
More than you wanted to know I suppose.
