I retired 3 years ago, but God called me to take the elementary principal position at St. Vincent de Paul. My wife, Sharon, and I have 3 children and 11 grand-children. I have loved being an elementary principal and helping students grow in God’s ways and developing them to be good students and servants of Christ.
