Hello from Mt. Vernon, Washington! After graduation from high school I attended the University of Wisconsin- Madison as an undergraduate and then attended medical school there. I married Marie and we moved to the "other UW" - the University of Washington in Seattle for my residency in Family Practice. After a brief time teaching in the UW program we moved to Mount Vernon, Washington and began a medical practice. We have lived here since 1975 and during that time served a term as Chief of the Medical Staff at the local hospital. I retired from active practice in 2008. We have one child, Blair who is married and now have two grandchildren ages 6 and 8.
Marie and I enjoy many outdoor activities in our retirment including biking, hiking, skiing and kayaking. We are active in community activities (I work with Habitat for Humanity and trail building) as well and are enjoying our grandkids. We also have enjoyed traveling. I also like making sawdust - some people call it woodworking. Looking forward to the 50th reunion in August!
