'62 - son of a shoemaker, becomes a shoemaker


My Dad was my HERO.

Because I wanted to be like him, I also became a construction engineer.

I know my Dad was proud of his 'shoemaker son', but he unfortunately died a few months after I got into the biz.

Not only did he inspire me to do the job I love, but he instilled the LOVE of travel, and for both, I will be forever grateful.

I honestly don't know if there is an 'after-life', but I know if he and I can 'hook-up', we’ll first talk of family, and then do a whole lotta 'shop-talk', and then we'll talk travel.
