About Me

After graduating the 8th Corps in 1980, Chris and I began our family of what is now four grown sons, Isaac 27, Britt 25, Bo 21, and Wyatt 17. We moved from our first assignment in South Dakota to Maryland. Then on to New York and settled in Ohio in the early 1990s. We now live in Centerville Ohio with our youngest son Wyatt who is a Senior in High School and a part-time Camp Counselor at Camp Kern, one of the nation's largest and oldest YMCA Camps in Southern Ohio. Isaac completed his MBA at Bowling Green State University last year and now works at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in the administative support division for the Air Force's C-5 program. Britt recently compled his undergrad at Ohio University in Fine Arts with a special focus on Ceramics and is making plans to continue his art career with an internship later this year. Bo serves in the US Army Rangers and is stationed at Fort Benning Georgia where he is making his mom, dad, and brothers very proud. Chris and I are beginning the "empty nest" phase of life which allows us to travel much more and we're having a ball. These are some of our best years yet.

My Interests

We love to travel and have recently visited several places that we have always wanted to see. Paris France, Monte Carlo, St Moritz and Lucern Switzerland, Portifino Italy and the Amalfi Coast of Italy, Puerto Villarta Mexico, and the Yukon of Canada. Britt (the art student) and I recently returned from Rome and Florence and Bo and Isaac and I recently returned from Dublin. Chris and I spent some time this summer in the South of France and Monaco. On a much more humble note, I also enjoy golf even if I make little progress or improvement. It's been a great sport for me to play with the boys who are all better than their dad.

Employment or Career

Today, I manage investments for individual clients and small businesses from my Centerville office with Edward Jones Investments. The business has developed into a remarkable opportunity to help people in ways that I never imagined possible and it has allowed Chris and me to realize some personal goals that were for years beyond all we could ask or think. I love what I do and will likely do it for a long time to come.

God Bless you guys Jim

God bless you, Brad and Chris!

Thanks for your kindness in communicating! I took the on-ramp onto this site about five days ago, and what a pleasant surprise to find out about how so many brothers and sisters are doing!

Our in-residence training years are also pleasant for me to remember, especially things you both said and did. Even the difficult and challenging times have some sweetness about them, sticking to God's Word despite circumstances that weren't always fun. (Good training for real life!)

Karen and I and the kids have been in North Carolina for about 20 years now. Three of our four children are North Carolinians by birth, all except for Derek who was born in Oklahoma City in 1988. We are thankful for God's love and provision for our lives, and to realize that we can learn about Him every day and never exhaust the supply of what He has to share with us.

Our son, Isaac is at Ohio Northern University in Ada, OH studying music education. We get up there periodically, either to drop him off or to pick him up after a quarter is finished. Perhaps we can meet sometime and visit?

It is great to hear that your sons have grown up and launched into adulthood. Also great to hear that you are enjoying life in these post child-rearing years.

All of the best to you and your family!

In Christ,

John

God bless you Brad and Chris. It is so good to hear about your lives and your family. We live about 5 hours from you, I think. I would love to hear more from you. Are you still teaching the WORD of CHRIST? That is our calling. Much love, Jim and Elaine

Hi Brad!
I get off at 6, so that's perfect - if you send me an email, we could exchange cell phone numbers. Is Chris coming with you? It will be so great to see you!

WOW! What a joy to hear from you. I would love to have been able to Brad. I have not been in Ireland for SOOOO long. Having said that what a good excuse that would have been. Unfortunately Teresa and I are at a Christian Conference for that week. It touches me that you would make the effort to contact me and I thank you brother. Can you tell me one incredible mystery? How do our wives not change as we accelerate to becoming clones of our Dad's? Hey, is this fair? I know life isn't fair but boy I am sure glad it is that way because we get to admire them longer. Please send Chris and the boys my love and sometime come to the real country of "FREEDOM!" Having said that Braveheart was shot mostly in Ireland so I take that back!!:)
The Lord bless you. I have such fond memories of both of you and I can say of a truth that I truly love you both also. Thanks for getting in touch. Don't be strangers!! Love , Don You should consider contacting Paddy Herron who is from Dublin and is now a famous author and a beloved brother. Tell I told you to do it and that he would take Royal care of the men folk. You will find Paddy on here.

I love you both so much. Tears are in my eyes at this moment. The kids look great as well. I wish you knew how much you made me into what I am today, the good parts anyway, and how much...I'm starting to ramble. I just want to say thank you. Thank you.

With love,
Dominic

Dear Brad and Chris!

So great to see your faces and to hear from you. You two were always so special and always blessed me so much. You look fantastic and it is hard to believe that you are almost empty nesters.

I send you both a big hug!!

Lots of love,
Kellie
Debbie Licht May 5, 2008 at 8:46pm

So glad to hear from you two!
Alan and I are separated and going through a divorce right now. It seems strange to even type that! Not much to say about that....Kids are really doing well. God is SO good to me!
Sure love you and appreciate your communication.
Debbie
