After graduating in 66', I joined the Navy for 4 years. I was stationed in TX and AK. When I was discharged from the Navy, I went to Anoka Technical College and received a degree in Turf Management. During this time, I met my wife, Laurie, and we married in 1971. After graduating from Anoka Tech, I began working for Chisago Lakes Golf Course in Lindstrom, MN as the Golf Course Superintendent. I worked at Chisago Lakes until 2003, when I retired. For the last few years, I've been working at the University of MN golf course on a part time basis since I love working outdoors. We have lived in Forest Lake, MN since 1972 and have lived in the same home since 1974. My wife and I have a daugher and son and 2 grandchildren, Brianna who is 15 years old and Vannessa who just turned 1 year old. My wife, Laurie, and I love to travel when we can, hike, ride bikes (the non-motorized kind!) and enjoy spending time with our family and friends.

"Just discovered your product today while trying to locate classmates ahead of our 50th reunion in 2020. The fact that you did this in a noncommercial manner in a world where everything has a price tag deserves recognition and respect, in my view.
Thank you and good luck in all your endeavors."
