8th Corps
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.

Did you know Eric Tevis died? It was around 4 years ago due to complications from C-hepatitis. Peter moved here and lived in La. for nearly 10 yrs. before moving back to Ks 2 years ago.
Love to you & Chris.
Great to hear from you. I still have great memories of Ft. Wayne and our minature fellowlabors program. I still have the photo of our everyone we took in your garage. I will see if I can track it down and get one of my computer savy kids to help me send it if you don't have a copy and are interested.
Do you know Randy Honeker? He use to live in Centerville and work for a brokage firm. I lived in Ft. Wayne for a couple of years after graduating from the corps.
Sounds like God has blessed you with a wonderful family. Chris does not look any different than when I last saw her.
You were both great inspirations to me. I still remember many of you teachings.
Thanks for writing,
God Bless

Great to see your smiling faces again. I have so many fond memories of you guys. Brad, you were always one of my favorite teachers of the Word. It was evident it came straight from your heart and it always communicated to mine. One in particular that stands out is where you taught from Psalms on how God puts us in a large room and gives us room to dance. 6 years after leaving TWI we are finally starting to dance again.
Love you much,
TIm
It's always good to hear from you. Sounds like the kids are doing well and getting together at times. Christine and Kevin were out here for the World Series. We got to take in a game, we had much fun.
Love from Dean & Edna
