I am married to Kathleen Bower. We have three adult children in a blended family, and a daughter-in-law, son-in-law, and son-in-law-to-be, as well as three grandchildren ranging in age from 20 months to 16 years old.

I was a pilgrim on Weekend #79, November 2009, in Lutheran Via de Cristo of North Texas. I served for the first time on Weekend #80 in March 2010.

I have served on many weekends. I have also served on our Secretariat as Weekend Rep, Treasurer, and Lay Director.

I am a member of Faith Lutheran Church in Flower Mound, Texas. I serve in many capacities there as well.

I am a retired CPA, having worked in several leadership positions in the Department of Defense, specifically the Defense Contract Audit Agency. Our agency audits large defense contractors, including Boeing, Raytheon, and Lockheed Martin.

I always need something to do. So I have two part-time retirement jobs. First, as the bookkeeper for Briarwood Lutheran Ministries. Second, as a school crossing guard for the Flower Mound Police Department.
