I was born in Evanston, Illinois on February 16, 1951. The third oldest of six children; five boys and a youngest sister. At an early age, my parents settled our family in Villa Park, Illinois, where all six of us went through the same schools, and had the same teachers, who, for some odd reason, remembered the older siblings attending their classes, almost as if they were holding some kind of a grudge, and asked how many more were still to follow. It was one of these teachers, Mrs. Bond, my teacher for both seventh grade and eighth grade English, who took a liking to me and encouraged me to write. Being young at the time, I didn't think much of her encouragements. It wasn't until much later that her words finally took on a meaning. I thank her for that. I finally settled in Tempe, Arizona. in 1980 and I've been living here ever since. Married, two step daughters and a son. Not married, still two step daughters and a son, but now four step grandchildren added to the mix. And here I am... flying sideways upsidedown.
