Biography
I was born in Ft. Collins, Colorado and lived in Loveland, Ft. Morgan, Durango, and Denver before coming to Kansas at age seven.
I grew up on an 880 acre wheat and cattle ranch outside of St. Francis, Kansas which is in the beautiful high plains.
How I came to live in Lawrence
I came to Lawrence in 1971 to receive training for selling Cable television. I then traveled around a several state area selling Cable as it was just beginning to really be popular.
I returned in Lawrence with the eventual objective of attending the University of Kansas, which I did.
