About Me
I married Judith Halliday of the 4th Corps in 1980 and we have two children, David K. who is now 23 and Valerie who just turned 21. While David lives close by Valerie has moved to Kentucky.
My dream trip was to Egypt. Upon our son's highschool graduation Judy took him to Scotland for 10 days. For Valerie's graduation from Massage Therapy school they took a cruise. After serving on the Concord School Board for three years it was time for my own trip. A friend had used a tour company in Cairo to help plan a trip for three of them in Egypt for 10 days.
I connected with the company and they helped me lay out 12 days of travel from Cairo to Luxor and back up to the Saharra. A guide and driver met me in each area of the country and at times I would meet up with another family or a couple going in the same direction. It was a great trip. These are a few photos from Giza.
My Interests
For outdoors hiking in the White Mountains is my favorite. I enjoy it all year round, although during the winter I tend to stay off of the peaks and ridges. While I enjoy the snow shoes and crampons I do not go so far as to hall out the ice picks. But the views found from the top of the mountains during all of the seasons in New Hampshire are spectacular.
Around town my interests have focused on support of our schools, volunteer on the PTOs, serving on the School Board, a board member of other nonprofit and arts organizations, staying connected in the arts, getting out to gallery openings, plays and of course the musicals that Judy loves so much. (While attending my first opera, at the outset, I turned to Judy and said, "This has music and singing in it." The sad truth is at the time I worked for the NH State Arts Council as the Grants Officer. I knew opera was music but sitting there it dawned on me that I had a long night ahead of me.)
Employment or Career
My work has been primarily in the nonprofit community in New Hampshire. I currently serve as the Executive Director of the NH Bar Foundation and focus on funding legal service programs for the poor.
Music I Like
Honestly, after high school and all the hard rock all I ever enjoyed were groups such as Joyful Noise or Agape. Currently I have a favorite gospel singer by the name of Ken Fernald who performs throughout New Hampshire and Maine. (Judy loves music.)
Books I Like
This again would be a long story as I have so many. I started keeping a log of books and authors a couple of years back.
Currently I am reading "When Jesus Became God" by Richard Rubenstein. I love history and am amazed at how messed up the Church was by just the 2nd and 3rd Century. I really feel for God, He has had such great intentions for so long.
Television I like
Interesting enough as Judy points out on her page I have come to enjoy "House" and "Grey's Anatomy", although the sight of blood or even discussing surgery with Judy gives me shivers. I must have been tramatized that evening at dinner when she described the brain surgery she observed at work that day.
Movies I like
Of course Lord of the Rings and have you heard they just struck a deal with Peter Jackson to make the Hobbit. I am sure everyone is so excited about that, especially Judy.
Sports Teams I like
New England Patriots

I don't remember, did I see you at the Rock much after that wow year? I don't know whether you know, but I moved to NC with Joanne Jones for two years before going wow again and then the 14th corps.
In one of the photo's Judy posted, with you, Judy and your daughter, you have the same grin I remember. Other than your hair you barely look much older.
I've got to get more photos on my site. My husband has his own page, with his picture on it. I have photo's of our two daughters on mine. It's hard to believe, we'll have been married 20 years this coming april.
Say hi to Judy for me. Will talk again later.
Have missed you's guys,
Marsha
How great to see you on this site.
We have 2 children, Jennifer who is 22 and Sarah who is 20. Sarah goes to Dartmouth in Hanover NH. I saw that you like hiking. Sarah just finished a six day hike on the Appalachian Trail (35 miles) with the Dartmouth Outing Club. It ended up being like LEAD for her--having to really believe God to help her and see her through---especially since the weather was so lovely!
Since you enjoyed the book, When Jesus Became God, you might also enjoy the book that Bob wrote called, One God - The Unfinished Reformation. He tuaght a One God class for a number of years and then put it into writing.
God bless you,
Susan
