After graduation, I served as a 1st Lt. in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers from 1966-1969.

I’ve been married for 33 years to the former Patricia A. Sanford of Lockport, and we have 3 children (Tracey, Scott, Matt) and 5 grandchildren (Samantha, Bailey, Jordan, Noah, Marissa).

I retired from Delphi Thermal & Interior (formerly Harrison Radiator) after 32 years of service as an injection mold serviceman. My wife, who graduated from the University of Buffalo as a business major, still works at Delphi.

I’ve spent a great deal of my free time coaching: Little Loop football for 13 years in Pendleton; High School JV & Varsity football for 8 years at Newfane High School; College Girls Softball for 4 years at Niagara County Community College; and recreational hockey for 2 years. I also umpired high school and college softball and baseball for 21 years.

My favorite things are enjoying my grandchildren, and traveling and spending time with my wife. My hobbies are horticulture (love working outside), golf, golf, golf (!), and bowling.
