What’s been happening:

Proud father of 3 (1 son and 2 daughters), and fortunate "other half" to Jill. Eldest started college in 2008 and youngest will begin in 2011. We live in Lititz, PA. We are thankful for God's goodness and have watched our children embrace the mysterious gift of redemption. Jill is very active in our church (LCBC), which had an attendance of maybe 500 when we first visited. LCBC continues reach out to those that normally would not attend church and has grown to about 7,000. After school I pursued music for bit with the band Thresher while working carpentry jobs. The band had limited commercial success, but shortly after I left, they were in negotiations with Warner Bros. Records. Unfortunately, WBR insisted that the lyrics were too "Christian" and would need to be toned-down! The boys in the band declined and disbanded shortly thereafter. In the spring of 2009 Roxx Records pursued Thresher to release the previously unreleased music...which it did in the CD titled "Here I Am". You can find it if you Google "godsthresher". I played the last four tracks. Professionally speaking, I am a Sr. Assoc. at Modjeski and Masters, Inc., which is a bridge engineering firm. I have been with MM since 1992 and lead the mechanical engineering department which primarily deals with movable (draw) bridges.
