Greetings to all!

It is hard to believe that it has been 35 years since Chanco became such a huge part of my life.  The reverberations continue.  Just the other day, I picked up my two oldest children from their first week at Sheldon-Calvary Camp, an Episcopal camp on the shore of Lake Erie.  The songs, the skits, the smell of mildew, bug spray, and the joy of the experience they had there (so similar to Chanco) made me ecstatic.  They are both already talking about growing up to be staff members.

I spent last week at camp too, doing the chaplain thing at our diocesan camp Cedar Hills.  It continues to give me life.

As I've continued to grow up, life has carried me from Southern Virginia, to ten years in Albany, New York, and for the past three years, in Lakewood, Ohio (just outside Cleveland).  I'm married to Monica, and have three kids: Alison (11), Joshua (8), and Rachel (5).  See attached pictures. 

Thanks, Greg, for putting this together.  I can't make the reunion weekend, but it and all of you will be in my prayers.
