Claim To Fame:

"Being a Champion of Education for my Children" I originally enrolled at FAMU back in '89 as a Freshman, but married a B-CU Wildcat from our hometown of Daytona Beach, FL and left for the US Air Force! I finally earned my degree 23 years later, after having three children, and a long career in the military. Two of the three children got into college before I finished up! My oldest daughter actually earned her BA from FAMU (Tallahassee, FL), my son is now a Senior in College at Gannon Univ. (Erie, PA), and my youngest daughter is a Senior in high school and heads off to college in 2015. My Rattler has earned two master's degrees since graduating FAMU and will have her Doctorate degree in Psychology (Psy.D) next year! So that is my claim to fame, although I encouraged my children to get their education, I was determined too not be left behind by them and I wanted them to see the dedication it takes to earn what you put your mind to!

Most Memorable Moment:

Graduating with my Bachelor's degree after 20 years of honorable service in the US Air Force and for my wife and children to be a part of that moment!
