Background
Information
I was born in rural Oklahoma in 1952. My father started working on pipelines when I was a toddler and we wound up in Colorado for many years. My mother worked as a waitress. With a beginning like that, maybe I should have become a movie star. Oh well, such is life. My father was sick quite a bit and spent a lot of time in hospitals. My mother worked different shifts, which meant we saw more of the sitter than we did our parents. It was not the most promising of beginnings, but I go on.

Throughout my life, there have been only a handful of people with whom I have been comfortable. The top three are my Grandmother Griffith, my sister and my beautiful wife of over 22 years.

My wife is a one a kind woman who has remained faithfully at my side, walking through wonderful times, terrible times and all times in between, with endless moral support and love. I pray that I have been as good a husband to her as she has been a wife to me. She has been a constant supporter, influence and inspiration in my being able to write my stories. I recently began writing stories at
