Michael's Story
After leaving Colorado Springs and Harrison HS,in 68 we moved to Redlands California where I graduated in 69 from Redlands high.I moved to Fort Collins Colorado in 2001, I lived in Hawaii for almost 20 years five in Honolulu and 15 on Maui, I have a 26 year old son, Tyler who lives in Maui April to Oct. and in Beaver Creek in the winter snowboarding...., I love it here with the four seasons and the Rocky Mountains in my backyard, Part of my heart is in Maui however with many wonderful friends on the Island, I try and go back at least twice a year and some day will return to the quiet harmony of a cottage in Kula,
I have been in the Restaurant biz for over 30 years,
and never seem to tire of it, as a manager in the 70's
and 80's and owning my own starting in 1987, in Maui and now in Colorado, One is in Denver and one is in Centerra,
My Passion now is "Compassion International" a wonderful organization helping children through
sponsorship, Tyler and I sponsor eight children, All of them live in Ethiopia,
Tyler and I went to Ethiopia in March 08 to meet them and , What a wonderful experience it was.
I went back in Feb. 09 Check out the photos from the 09 trip. Our next Trip is in September 2010 when Jerry my oldest daughter is getting married to a wonderful young man Teme.. She is a blessing from God....
