Summary

  • Retired since 2018. Happily married to Martha, now a blessed and proud grandfather. Focused on community service, social justice and my own spiritual development. I find joy in my garden, golf, fishing, birds and the general outdoors. Mostly, I like spending my time with my lovely wife and enjoying good health. Lifelong friends and family have meant so much to me. I love them all. Physicians are among the best people I know, and I'm proud to be among them.
