This is a brief snapshot of me. I grew up central MN, attended St. John's University (in MN), and married Marcia, who I met in chemistry class in high school. I taught high school mathematics for five years, during which time we had two children born. We then left MN for IN and I obtained a Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Notre Dame. We then moved to Pella, IA where I taught at Central College in the Mathematics Department. Our third child was born in Pella. Now these three are scattered across the country with children of their own. Marcia died in 2019 and I retired that year as well. Since then, I have spent time visiting the children and grandchildren and other travels and projects.
