After high school I started my own concrete business, Crosstown Concrete and Brick Paving Inc. in 1976. Also married Sheila in 1976. We will be married 43 years in November. We have three children and seven grandchildren, that are the joy of our life. I like to golf, play pickle ball, fish and hunt. We spend our summers on Lake Sylvia in Annandale Minnesota and our winters in Key Largo, Florida.
