He acquired a love of literature by the young age of nine and composed his first poem in the fourth year of grade school. Married his high school sweetheart in December after graduation. He became a trades person while raising his family. He and his wife ran their own heating and air-conditioning business until they reached their late forties, sold the business and all of their land-based possessions, boarded their sailboat at the Port of Catoosa east of Tulsa, Oklahoma.
They then spent the better part of the next twenty years living aboard and cruising the Caribbean. Making up for his lack of a formal education, he brings to the table his colorful diverse lifestyle and his willingness to share his unique lifetime experiences as an avid reader and student of humanity. After he composed his memoirs, he started his first novel at the age of seventy-six.
He and his devoted soul mate will celebrate their sixty years together in December of 2014 in their native state.view less
