Spending time with friends

FUN FACT

Met my wife, Kathleen, in the military while sharing a foxhole at Fort Drum, NY in 1991. Proposed to her at the end of OCS training in front of our military friends.

  A few of my mantras –

If you’re 5 minutes early, you’re 10 minutes late.

Spend time with family and friends because you can always make more money,

You can’t make more time.

Words lie, action speaks the truth

Enjoying spending time with my wife, Kathleen
