He has been married to Marsha for 40 years and they have two grown sons, Jeremy and Justin, one precious daughter in law Laura and two grandchildren, Sadie and Hayden. Romans 1:16 and John 3:16 speak to him because they remind him that God is real and that there is the promise of eternal life with him, if we believe. He also likes Psalm 23:4, Jeremiah 29:11 because they challenge him to walk in faith, not fear, because God has a plan for our future. “As the Deer pants for the water,” “There is a God,” and “How Great is our God” make him stop and think we are here only for a short time and there is a better place awaiting!!!
