He graduated from Oak Forest Academy in 1975 (played Football #70, Basketball, Baseball, Literary Rally, and voted Most Friendliest his Senior year) and reminisced with all whom knew him (and didn't know him).

Upon passing the ownership to Dale Mixon and maintaining the Company's name, he then obtained his CDL license and "hit the highway" traveling and living life's adventures.
