1960

After graduating from CHS, I attended UofA and received my Aerospace Engineering degree in '64. I moved to St. Louis and married Kay, my wife for 32 years. We have two wonderful sons (Jim, 30 years old and Andy, 28 years old). Both are married and we have one granddaughter (June 17, '99) and one on the way. After 5 years in St. Louis on the Gemini and Skylab projects with McDonnell, I changed careers. In Vail, Colorado, I join my step brothers in a ski lodge project, followed by a real estate development career. In 1981 we moved back to Tucson.  Currently, I am managing Phoenix Systems, a manufacturer of automotive brake bleeding tools and brake fluid test strips.
