| Introduction | My wife and I have been married for the last 46years. We have two adult children who because of work/education live on the East Coast. We are very proud of them. Prior to retirement I was a municipal court judge and attorney. My wife worked with me as a para legal. I grew up in Coos Bay/North Bend Oregon and graduated from North Bend High School. I graduated from the University of Oregon in Eugene both undergraduate and law school. Between college and law school I spent two years in the U.S. Army (1969-1971).My passion Is the Oregon Ducks!Go Ducks! Update: in 2020 our home along with thousands of other homes in Southern Oregon was destroyed in a wild fire. As a result we retired a few months earlier than planned and moved to Kentucky to be near our son. |
