Larry's Story
Life
We've been back from Rio de Janeiro for nearly 8 years, so it is time for a new adventure. I am working on Ph.D. in Sustainable Development at the University of Stellenbosch in South Africa while living in Somerset West, South Africa. I was elected to the Issaquah School Board (16,000+ students) for a 4 year term in 2003 and I resigned after 3 to run for Congress in 2006 and 2008. In the process I was elected to become President of the Board, so that is a more than full time job for virtually no pay. I'm also Chairman of the Chamber Board, on a local hospital board, and in Rotary.
This is in addition to my work with Suasor, a consulting company specializing in Sustainable Development and privatizations in the developing world.
My passions are motorcycles, tennis and snow skiing....Expand for more
I am a PSIA certified ski instructor and teach at Crystal Mountain part time, about an hour and a half from the house when I am in the Seattle area.
My wife of 35 years, Susan "Francie" Engle Ishmael (Edmond High '70), teaches at Skyline High and ijust earned her master's degree two years ago.
Clay is 31 and works in the insurance business and married his longtime girlfriend, Erin, on his 28th birthday. They are expecting our first grandson on October 8, 2009 and we can't wait! Greg is 29 and lives in the Burkina-Faso (Africa) with his wife of over 5 years where they both teach English in a private academy. Reese graduated from Whitman College this past May 2009, the highest ranked academic institution in the Pacific Northwest, so we are now empty nesters and waiting for grandkids!
