The Penn State Alumni Association

What’s been happening:

In the past year I have made four trips to Africa, as a volunteer, working with a missionary, to install water wells and water systems for some very needy people in Sudan, Ethiopia and Kenya. I plan to make several more trips there this year, and hope to make many more in the coming years, as this has quickly become my life's work. I also made one visit to Baghdad, as a paid consultant this time, to assist in the startup of a drinking water plant at Victory Base Camp. I will soon return there to finish this work. I may also be traveling to Kathmandu, Nepal for a similar water project there. On a personal note, I have been blessed with three gorgeous daughters (age 29, 20 and 17) and one beautiful grandaughter, age 4 months. They keep me quite busy.
