Born on Long Island. Lived in Fl, grew up in Bama, sojourned in New Orleans, camped in Grenada, MS, then to the land of beer & cheese in Milwaukee then trekked to the Sonoran Desert in Tucson. Along the way met wonderful people, a few scoundrels, got married then shattered. God gave me beautiful daughters. What a journey. I have Great kids, Great church family, Good friends ... I am blessed.
