I have been married to my wife Alice for 52+ years. We moved here to Trilogy in August 2018. We have four sons, 8 grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren. Two of my sons have served in the Air Force we currently have 2 grandsons serving, one in the Air Force and one in the Marines.
I served in the Navy from July 1968 to July 1972 as a radioman. I spent one year in Da Nang, Vietnam from May 1969 to May 1970.
I am retired from the State of New Jersey, Division of Motor Vehicle as a field auditor and investigator after 25 years. My wife retired from her position as an ER RN Clinical Supervisor.
My community service included coaching various sports programs for both boys and girls. I was also involved in the Jaycees and Masons. I have previously served on the Board of Adjustment for the City of Northfield, NJ.
As a fellow veteran I want to keep up the good work that TOVA does in the community.
