Where to start?!? I am married to Patty, who is the bookkeeper and a sales clerk at NAPA Auto Parts in Hornell. Together, we have two daughters, two sons, and six grandchildren. Our oldest daughter, Angela, is a day-care provider by day and a waitress by night. She has 4 children. Our youngest daughter, Andrea, is a bank teller, County dispatcher, and also works at NY Tan. She has 2 children. Our oldest son, Justin, is a Deputy Sheriff in Volusia County, Florida, but is currently serving in Afghanistan with the National Guard. As a Deputy, he works with many of my old partners that I had as a Deputy there. Our youngest son, Christopher, is a gear-head like his old man and works near Harrisburg, PA, at a high performance Mustang shop.

As for me, after the Navy, I went into Law Enforcement in 1976, serving as a Deputy Sheriff in both Florida and New York.

I still have my 1948 Plymouth that I bought in 1964 and the 1971 Toyota Land Cruiser that I bought new and brought back from Guam.

Patty and I enjoy gutting and re-doing old houses. I also enjoy my shop and good friends. I may get older but I'll never get old!!!
