Special Interests: I still like sports a lot. Elliot is really into baseball right now, and he's a lot better than I was. He's a Southpaw. We're starting to play some golf together, which is nice. I also like to trout fish when I can (mostly I work). We attend West Hills Presbyterian Church.
Significant Events: '76- US Navy; Lived in Gaeta, Italy for 2-yrs and traveled a lot; Married Mary Duckett (Class of '75) in '82; Exited Navy in '83 & moved to Knoxville; Graduated tech school in '84. Moved to W. Palm Beach working at Pratt & Whitney Aircraft at their gas turbine engine test facility; Didn't like S. Florida, so moved back to Knoxville working with Raytheon Engineers in '86 - stayed there for 15-years; Elliot came along in '93 and changed everything! In 2000, took job with Mesa Associates as Manager of a new Instrumentation and Controls / Systems Integration Department. My department now has twenty-seven engineers and designers located in Knoxville and Kingsport, working projects primarily in the power and petro-chemical industries; Wrote a book in 2003 entitled "Successful Instrumentation and Controls Design" published by the ISA (sales are tepid - it's not a big field!).
Other: We haven't been in touch with anyone much - life has a way of taking over - but we wish everyone the best, and, I must say, this website is awesome! Please come and work on my company's site!
