I am married to my wonderful wife, Rachel, and we have two sons, Don and Daniel. My oldest son Don has an Aerospace engineerintg degree and is a director at the Rocket and Space Center in Huntsville, Alabama. My Youngest Son is an English Teacher in Belton, Texas. My wife and I also have  our Staffordhire terrier, Blue, who acts like he is one of our children.

  In my off time I like to fish, hunt and go to the range. I work leather projects and collect military memorbilia.  I have artifacts from World War I, World War II, and  Vietnam. For fun I also practice Bagua Zhang, lift weights, run, hike and camp out.
