Spouse: Sharon Children 3 Barry, Randy & Scott Grandchildren: None to date Two days after graduation, I left for Southern California. I got a job at a plastic and rubber company. After a couple of years I took a job with Bekins Van and Storage starting a career with the Teamsters. I spent two years in the Army and returned to Bekins. I was married in 1964. I left Bekins and took a job with Douglas Aircraft in Transportation. I was laid off in 1975, and in 1977 we decided to move to Arkansas. After looking for work with the Teamsters, we relocated to Rogersville, MO (near Springfield and Branson). I started working for associated Wholesale Grocers until I retired in 1996 (38 years with the Teamsters) as a truck driver. Since retirement I keep busy working around the place doing landscaping and remodeling projects.
