Retired Lt. Col. Air Force. Wood working for about 25 years. Became involved with handcrafted wooden gifts when I retired as a way to keep me off the street.

I have 3 grown children. My retired Air Force son works for Hitachi. My daughter is married and has 3 boys. My young son owns a refrigeration installation and repair company on the Tacoma Tide Flats. He has 2 children.

I met my wife when I was stationed in England. We have been married for 47 years.
