Scott's Story
Life is great! My wife and I have been married for 19 years...I met her while stationed at Kirtland AFB, Albuquerque, NM. We have three kids and one dog (a miniature schnauzer named Spike).
We moved last summer and currently live on Keesler AFB, Biloxi, MS. I'm staying busy as the Sq commander and President of the Gulf Coast AFCEA chapter. My wife is actively involved in the Sq spouses group and as the base Keesler Spouses group President.
Outside of the military, we're active in our community and the local church. We're also involved with the Officer Christian Fellowship (OCF) ministry. My wife and I have served in many church ministries over the years.
Paul and Sarah (the two oldest) are both accomplished piano players. In addition, they also play the trombone and flute respectively. Both are very active in sports. Paul and Sarah have both earned their Black Belts in World TaeKwonDo Federation (WTF) martial arts.
In our free time, we spend as much time as we can boating. We appropriately named our boat "Family Time". Its been a great way to spend time with the family. While boating, we like to ski, wake board, tube, fish, and overnight.
School
What I liked most about growing up in Southern California was heading to the beach with friends after class to do some sailing or windsurfing.
The teacher that helped me the most in High School was Mr Freeman...he kept me from getting kicked out of school :-) Does anyone know where he is located?
