Anne and I spent some 37 years in the Foreign Service. Along the way we had two children, Ben and Laura, and five grandchildren -- Morgan, Bailey, Riley, Pareker, and Sofia. They are our pride and joy.
From overseas assignment we always came back to live in Arlington. When I retired, we decided to stay here. Once an Arlingtonian.... Our 'starter home' will -- we hope -- be our 'ender home.'
In addition to our family, we are grateful for many blessings. Staying healthy during the pandemic is at the top of the list. We look for a return to normal in 2022.
