As I stated on the first page I'm 58 years old & like everyone else, have had my challenges in life.   I am addicted to playing chess on line .  If you enjoy the game  I have some of my  favorite sights listed.  I grew up in Charleroi Pennsylvania, Class of "63".  My second home & where my mother's family came from was Roaring Spring,Pa. I also started school there. I received my Bachelor's from   then California State College. My Master's equivalency from the State of Pa.   I taught & coached  for 23 years at Elizabeth Forward Jr. High,Elizabeth Pa.   I married Kathy L. Wagoner in 1978   & moved to West Newton Pa.  We lived above her father's business. Where I worked part time while continuing to teach. In 1981 our only child  Laura was born.  Then in 1989 after a stroke we moved to South Butler.  Then in 1997 to Hiawassee Ga. where we live now.  I miss people but not Pennsylvania. 
I dream of being able to go back to work again.  However till then. I walk and ride & perform other exercises.  I enjoy reading & TV.  I also try to attend church on a regular basis.
