I Graduated from local high school (Ketterlinus) and attended University of Florida. I met my wife to be, on a hayride, she was 14 and I was 18. After four years of dating we married. She was a St Augustine, FL, native with ancestors dating back to 1564, the year St. Augustine was founded. We have five children, three boys and then two girls. Ages 54 to 44. We are the proud grandparents of eight grandsons and one grand-daughter, ages 14 to 30. My wife, Diane, of 49 years passed away six years ago from cancer.
