: About Me

I retired from the USPS after 39 years, 20 years as postmaster. Along with the humor I find in every aspect of life, I enjoy writing, reading, sketching, music, and outsmarting my family.

My childhood ambition ...

to beat my sister at dodgeball

My favorite memory ...

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

when I conquered public speaking.

My inspiration ...

My family, past and present
