I was born and raised in Butte, attended Harrison grade school and graduated from
Butte High School in 1956.   Held various jobs until I went to work for the
Montana Power Company in 1958.
Married the love of my life, Patty (Patricia A. Poole) in July of 1962.   I was
transferred to the Montana Power Company steam plant in Billings Montana that same
year.   Worked there until I accepted a job in 1966 with Microflect Company
(tower manufacturer and installer) and moved to Salem Oregon.
At Microflect Company I worked as a registered civil engineer, Sales/Marketing
manager and Construction manager until 1996 when the company was sold.
Terry Brown and I then formed Destiny Communication Inc.   (we furnish and
install microwave sites in the 8 western states.)   I am still working full time.
Patty passed away in May of 2010 after a courageous two and one half year battle
with cancer.
We have four children, Shelly (claims adjuster with State Farm Insurance), Sherry
(case worker with the state of Oregon), Jason (owner of KingPin Audio) and Kathy
(supervisor with Standard Insurance Co.).   Also, we have 2 grandchildren –
Ashley and Lulu.
Looking forward to going to the 2012 class reunion.
