The Penn State Alumni Association

What’s been happening:

After teaching music for six years, I joined our family-owned insurance agency and have enjoyed working there ever since. My brother and I are the co-owners and the agency has been in business since 1969. Music is still very important in my life. I play drums and sing with a 4-piece band called "Top Shelf". We play classic rock and throw in some country to mix it up. I also play in and direct a local community band and direct a community choral group. This plus I direct our church choir where my wife is the minister. Barb and I have two children, Jolynn and Tony. Jolynn is married and working part-time. She has given us a beautiful granddaughter, Gabriella, who keeps us hopping and smiling! Tony graduated with a degree in exercise science and, after a brief stint in the Chicago area, he and his girlfriend are back near us working in her brother's Italian restaurant. Our family has truly been blessed and Barb and I owe it all to meeting in the Blue Band and the many great times at PSU!
