ental School until '74. During that time I married Patricia Allgood U of R '72. Moved to Hollywood Florida in '74 for a hospital residency. Then to Soquel, CA for private Practice. Sold that in '79 got divorced and moved to Willits CA. Joined the Indian Health Service where I stayed for 26 years. Remarried in '80 (celebrated #34 in Feb 2014). Retired from IHS in 2006 and opened Affordable Dentures Practice in Spokane WA. I'll be retiring for good in Sept '14. I collect old cars (my favorite is a '70 GTO) I garden and have over 60 varieties of roses on my sprawling 160 acre alfalfa ranch in NE Washington State. I enjoy the Beatles, Pink Floyd and Doo Wop music. Have 15 grandkids, and 7 (at last count) great-grandkids. The wife and I will be spending most of the time in Costa Rica at our beach house. Can you blame us??
