 * 1979:** While attending the University of Washington, I married my wife, Linda, who is from Keyport, Washington. In 1966 I graduated from the U of W with degrees in accounting and finance. I went to work for Douglas United Nuclear in the Tri-Cities. In 1971 we transferred to the Naval Products Division of United Nuclear Corporation, where I am Manager of Financial Systems and Controls. Our home is Madison, Connecticut. However, we are seldom there, since I work about 45 miles east of there, and my wife works in New Haven, as office manager for a small law firm, about 25 miles the other direction. We spend most of our weekends and vacations on our boat during the summer and have taken up cross-country skiing for our winter recreation. We have visited Mount Vernon briefly several times since moving to Connecticut and were surprised at how much it has grown over the years.

**1999:** My wife Linda and I moved to Connecticut in 1971 after spending five years in the Tri-Cities in Eastern Washington, where I worked at Hanford. We planned to stay on the East Coast for two years when we moved here, but we are still here 30 years later. Since we moved here, we have spent most of our free time boating on the East Coast. I guess we have been stuck in a bit of a rut for the past 30 years or so. I am Controller for Engelhard Surface Technologies and am looking forward to retiring within the next year. We have a beach house on Lummi Island near Bellingham and plan to retire there next summer. We hope to buy a motor home and bum around the country when the Western Washington rain is more than we can handle.  P.S. I still drive a Corvette, and so far none of the fenders are taped on like they were after our “Senior Sneak.”
