I'm a high school history teacher in the northern panhandle of WV (John Marshall High School) and a Christian songwriter.
I'm married to a wonderful husband who is a retired high school history teacher and we live here with our golden retriever, black mutt, stray cat, and pound cat. Life is good.
Here's some family pictures as well as one of a group of co-workers I had the privilege of working with. Most of them retired in recent years (they were all hired at the same time back in the early 70's) so we've got a virtually all new social studies staff at JM as we gear up for another 30 years of quality service! I get to bridge the gap.
The videos below are of my senior year in JMHS band, a fairly recent JMHS choral concert presentation of a song I wrote, and a 1981 commercial for the Oakland A's featuring Billy Martin. When I was an early teen, I really got into following baseball and any team managed by Billy Martin, who knew how to make that game fun to watch with his unpredictability. If you don't know Billy, the video won't mean much, but if you do remember him, the little commercial should bring a smile.
Who I'd like to meet: I've met everyone here I would hope to except Billy Graham. I look forward to seeing Jesus, but I'll wait until the time is right. ;)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! See you in a few more days...We can't wait!!! I told your Mom that someone is going to have to knock me in the head if I get to giddy...LOL
On this your special day, I pray for you. I pray for smiles and love, for friends that are true. I pray for sunshine, for warmth and tenderness. I pray for unexpected moments of joy and laughter. But most of all, I pray peace for you.

Hey Susan, How have you been? I saw your beautiful friend on your profile pic. I thought I would share Sam with you. He is a two year old toy poodle. Thinks he is human. Talk to you later. Laverne
