I taught in the Mehlville School District in St. Louis County for 30 years and 2 years at St. Louis University High School. For over 12 years, I have been working as program consultant for Teaching American Grants in the St. Louis area and in Belleville, Illinois. The grant work ended in June so I am officially retired and having a blast. My hobbies are genealogy, reading, woodworking, photography, and any outdoor experience with my wife and family. We have eleven grandchildren which we enjoy beyond words and my greatest addiction is the St. Louis Cardinals.
