I am a Christian father of
four grown adults; I have seen God’s grace and mercy in my life. I will be
happily married for 44 years this year (2015), to my wife, Anne. She is a woman
of great faith, and love, whom I share this life with. We overcame the
statistics for marriages of Vietnam veterans. We have done this all while
loving, and caring for our severely, and profoundly disabled daughter, and which
the stress alone could have added so many complications to our lives if we
allowed it. We have raised four children
into four grown adults. Our first born, Rebecca, has her Masters degree in education, and
is a teacher. Our second child, Robert, works as a Supervisor for a cleaning company, and has a girlfriend named Natalie. Our third child, Mariel, has received
her B.S.R.N., in Nursing, and was married in 2007 to Ronell. Ronell and Mariel,
Pastor a ministry called “God Carriers
International” and Ronell is the Campus Director for “The Answer Church,
Lake Mary, FL.” They have a son named Nadir, who,
turned 19 this year (2015), and since brought a son named Levi into this world
in 2010. And another
son Micah, (2013), finally, Josiah born 2015. Our youngest, Gayle, who, as I
often say, “I believe I would not be the person I am today without her.” She is
our “special child.” I have received my
Associate degree in August of 2006 and my license as a minister, September 16,
2012.
My daughter Mariel, Levi, Ronell, Micah, Nadir and Josiah.
