I was born in Greenville and grew up in nearby Easley, in the rolling piedmont section of South
Carolina at the foothills of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, part of the Appalachian Mountain chain.

I was the youngest of three children, but my brother and sister were much older. They were out on
their own when I was still very young so it seemed like I was an only child.
These mountains are within an hour's drive of the
Easley/Greenville, SC. area

I had wonderful Christian parents who practiced old fashioned standards and
enjoyed the simple things in life.   Dad worked long hours and Mom stayed
at home running the house and taking good care of everyone

At the age of eight, I remember very clearly the Lord dealing with me
about my salvation.  One evening I went to my mom and told her that I
wanted to get saved.  We knelt by my bed and I asked Jesus to
come into my heart.

When I say that I am a Christian, I do not mean that I am
religious and I am not bragging.  I am a sinner saved by grace; salvation
is a free  gift to all those who will receive it.  Also I am certainly not perfect
by any means.  Walking with the Lord and having Him to depend on through
it all means  so much; family and friends may disappoint you, but the Lord
will always be there.  
Me and my Parents
1959 - I was 11.
At the age of nine, we found that I had juvenile diabetes,
an event that had a major change on the rest of my life.
Read more about this on my "Diabetes Pages."  
I  lived in the Chicago surburbs for 27 years.
I liked living close to a large city; Chicago is a wonderful place.
The main thing I didn't like is the cold weather.
