Bill and his wife, Ann, have three
children. John lives in
Fairfax,
VA, is not married, but lives
with girlfriend and dog.
Ric lives in Olney, MD, is married and has two children. Beth lives in
Ames,
IA, is married and has four
children and a dog.
Bill says, “To the best of my knowledge, none are or have
been in jail and all appear to be self-supporting. I have changed the locks on
the doors, so they can’t return home to live. However, the dogs like me,
so they can come home to visit.”
Bill retired as an executive
director of an insurance company in 2000. He tells us, “I needed help
from above”, so he now works part-time as the business manager of
his church. He has held
leadership positions in Jaycees, Optimists, Chamber of Commerce and
church. He cooks
competition chili and enters chili cook-offs across the country from
California to
Texas and
New York. Bill adds, “My wife is
English, so we use the King’s English at home and celebrate Boxing
Day and the Queen’s birthday.”
