I played golf from 12 years old as a caddy at WCC, Pleasant Valley and Mount Pleasant until recently. Just tennis 5 days a week with friend of over 50 years, most who have new hips and/or knees.

I mean wonderful grandchildren, Kimber 6 and Dominick 19 (who is in his first year of college at Salisbury University majoring in business. They are the kids of Brenda's son Dennis and Katrina. My sons are not married and have no kids. Kirk is a talented artists in Delaware and Keith is a fitness club manager. I have mentored twin brother tennis players, Frances and Franklin Tiafoe who played since they were 6 years old at my tennis club. Frances is now a tour player ranked as high as 29 in the world and Franklin is a tennis coach in DC. My brother Raymond died a few years ago in Florida from complications with Agent Orange from his time in Viet Nam. Mys sister Diane, lives in Cleveland Tennessee after leaving Orlando. My half-brother Bill Burtt, a former Cleveland Tennessee detective married a girl from Thailand where they both live now near Bankock. My cousin Dennis Towner died of a heart attack 10 years ago. He ran track and cross country with me at North. My favorite bird is the cardinal, who visits me often from heaven where my mom spends time watching over the family dogs as they romp and play and wait for me. Hopefully some of my track teammates will see this and contact me. I also wonder why Cathy Boyd has contacted me so often on this site. She has visited me a lot. I'll have to catch up with her and thank her for the nice thng she said about me. I also want to know what she means by "crush worthy"!!
