The Penn State Alumni AssociationWhat’s been happening: I am married to Maureen (Moran) and we have 4 children: Chris, Brent, Rhonda, Jennifer and one granddaughter, Ava. Brent is in the Air Force (17 years so far) and is pursuing his Masters Degree in Criminal Justice, Rhonda graduated from University of Texas and Jennifer from Texas A&M. This gives me a number of football teams to cheer for but the Nittany Lions and Joe Pa are at the top. After graduation I worked for Honeywell Process Control Division in various locations and then took a job with a start-up communications company in Dallas, Texas where we have lived for the last 40 years. I retired after 37 years in the computer systems and communications systems industries involved in technical, sales, and management positions. I enjoyed the years I spent designing process control systems, message switching systems, and adaptive intelligence systems. I had the pleasure of designing, implementing and installing the first computerized National Law Enforcement Teletype System (NLETS) in Phoenix, Arizona. I coached a boy's soccer team for 19 seasons. I also played on a men's team and became a state referee. My hobbies include golf, oil painting and bird carving. I enjoy traveling and hope to find the perfect retirement place soon! |
