I retired in May, 2006 from The International Broadcasting Bureau/Voice of America. I still play tuba - in the 65-member Kings Park Concert Band, where I'm also the webmaster, (kingsparkband.org) and a 10-piece German band. I also played with the Manassas Symphony Orchestra from 2004 until 2019. Patti also played clarinet in the concert and German bands with me, as well as in the 50-member Washington Balalaika Orchestra, a woodwind ensemble, and a trio. We moved into a new home built for us in 2006 in the same area. I serve on the neighborhood's communications/newsletter committee. I was previously married for nearly 39 years, to Marcia Goldstein, of Paterson (Eastside, '57) and widowed in 2000. I have a son, Mike, who is retired in Hawaii.
