Thomas's Story
Life
It seems like another lifetime ago since high school; OK, it was! Since then, I have retired from the Army, traveled the world twice over, participated in two armed conflicts, have maintained most of my friendships from the military, and like most of us, graduated college (Masters Degree), and raised one son who graduated from IUP in December 2015 who married a great young lady on October 16, 2021. My post-military career encompassed working the DOD and then State Department in Europe and DC, and then working local for two years, and as of April 3, 2009, I bid the working force a fair adieu and retired for good.
Throughout all those humbling experiences, I have maintained my sanity (OK, most of it), all of my ways of joking around and keeping comedy and laughter a priority in my life.

n maintaining my physical conditioning, avoid "all" drama in my life, and look forward to the future with great anticipation. Why you ask? I am very happy and comfortable with who I am; if it's this good now - bring on the rest!
I prefer to participate in outdoor activities, especially going to Penn State and Steeler football games; Fall is my favorite season (the foliage change, the smell, the crispness of the air); I like travel, even if it is a long weekend, Europe is my favorite play ground; sometimes doing just nothing (even though it is not a common occurrence) while listening to music is a must for me. I am also a motorcycle enthusiast, and ride my Harley as much as I can, especially in the local mountains in the Fall season, and participate in rides that benefit Veterans and special needs children.
