Remodeling so please be patient.

Proud and loyal husband and father, I have been married to my wife Vicki for 20 years and love her dearly. Together we have a wonderful son Zach who is an Honors student at ASU and hopes to be a Neurosurgeon. I have a great sister and her husband, along with their two boys and a brother and his wife and their cute as a button son.

Love Chicago, miss it. South Side! The food and the history. Consider myself a humble servant to the people in regards to preserving history. Without understanding history, the events and the people of the time, how can we prevent ourselves from making the same mistakes. I research Chicago pre 1871and the Columbian Expo 1893.

If I am in Chicago you can find me at 55th and Ashland in the house my family has owned since the 1880's.

Oh and my best pal Durango. Our dog.

Even a newspaper man, if you entice him into a cemetery at midnight, will believe in phantoms, for every one is a visionary, if you scratch him deep enough. But the Celt is a visionary without the scratching.
