ork for B & W Contractors in Pine City for about 5 years. After they filed for bankruptcy, I went to work for Decker Inc building bridges. I became the Field Forman installing bridges and traveled all over eastern United States as far west as Iowa and south to North Carolina. I enjoyed this very much being outside, traveling and meeting new people all over the country. I did this for 20 years until I retired in 2003. I still work for them on occasion just to keep active. I can't just sit home after traveling all those years. My first marraige, after 4 kids, ended in divorce in 1984. Married again in 1995 and divorced in 2001 and been free every since. I am back in my home town of Caton NY where I will probably spend the rest of my life.
