On Aug. 15, I turned 87 years young. Yes, I have been incredibly blessed with good health, a wonderful wife of 50 years, four terrific and successful children, and four outstanding grandchildren—also all successful.
I grew up in eastern Pennsylvania, spending summers with my maternal grandparents on a lake in Maine. I learned a primitive lifestyle living in a cabin with no electricity or indoor plumbing. I also learned to swim, fish, boat, explore, camp out, and appreciate many of God’s wonders. These are some of the best memories of my incredible life.
