Married 29 years to Ruth Wilhelm. We live in Mascoutah Il (25 mi east of St. Louis) with our youngest daughter Mary. Mary is 16 and is a Jr. at MHS. She is an excellent and active student. We have three grown children, Tom (Micro-Biologist), Scott (Structural Eng) and Karen (Music Teacher). Scott was married last Nov. and we have no grandchildren yet. Everyone is smarter than me, which presents a real challenge to me. I work as an Eng. for GTE (27 yrs) and Ruth is an accountant. The whole family enjoys music and all of us are singing or have sung in various choirs. Last year I joined the Belleville Masterworks Chorale. We sing mostly classical music which is challenging but usually beautiful. (I am a tenor). We give 4 performances a year, the final being broadway music. I'm looking forward to that; I'm also looking forward to seeing many of you at the reunion(s).
