The Penn State Alumni Association

What’s been happening:

Started work with Union Carbide Corporation in Clarksburg West Virgina in 1950 in plant engineering. After 8 years transferred to sales. In 1969 rather than leave Texas, took a job in Wichita Falls, TX as Sales Manager for their process equipment Division. In 1976 my boss left to become President of Sauder Industries in Emporia Kansas. A short time later offered me job as Vice President of Sales for U.S. and Europe. Company was bought out in 1981 and I left to start my own Rep agency. We sell stainless steel equipment to the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Currently my son runs the company from day to day but I am still active and do a lot of the technical design. Hobbies are gun collecting, hunting, sports cars (Corvette) and active in the Presbyterian Church. Married to my wife, Barbara for 54 years and have daughter and son who live nearby. Things have generally gone well and appreciate my Penn State education.
