Left California in 1991 after retiring from Douglas and the C-17 program. Bought a small business in Littleton, NH and enjoyed the North Country until March of "08 when we moved to Massachusetts to be closer to our son and his family. Sold the business in '03.
Try to stay current on things associated with airplanes, the USAF and the aerospace industry. We are enjoying our maturity and being close to family. Try to keep in contact with old friends and would enjoy hearing from anyone with whom we have lost touch with over the years.
