About Me

Let’s see, after I graduated from the 14th Way Corps in 1986, I went back to finish my masters at Texas A&M, and stayed to run a “Twig area.” At the end of three years, everyone between me and the Board of Trustees (My Territory Coordinator, the Limb Coordinator, and the Region Coordinator) had all left. I was sending my blue forms directly to Howard Allen. At that point, I left also. I got on a plane for Gartmore Scotland and married a Graduate of the E-5 Corps- Dagmar Reichelt. We lived in Germany for the first 3 years of our marriage. Rev. Chris Geer suggested it would be better for a newly wed couple to be in Europe at that time because the Ministry was not in such disarray there as it was here. I am sure that he was right. We stayed there through the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the ensuing U.S. Military Draw-down, then Moved back to the States. We had two beautiful Girls. Becca ,18, was born in Frankfurt Germany. (She is named after the 10th Corps Girl who witnessed to me.) Stephanie,14, was born in Missouri. (She was named after my Corps sister- Stephanie [Sarro] Barnard.) Dagmar and I Divorced in 2000, and I am currently helping my Corps Brother, Rev. Kenny Hagar run a CFF Ministry fellowship north of Kansas City, MO.

Where was the scuba picture from? I went for the first time in the Dominican Republic. It's a lot of fun. Hey my sister Renee said you thought theremight be a rift between us, I honestly don't remember any thing like that, Anyways, hope all is well with you and yours.

Renee

My goodness Tom! You remembered that---how we each had to say how to remember our names!!! Man, I hated that class. I got in trouble often in that class what's his name, the name of the instructor--was it Dave B-something? He threatened to have me kick out of the Corps; he tried to intimidate me. "HA!!" was what I thought and "I'm not leaving!" Did I go first? Geesh! You have quite the memory! Anyway.... your daughters are beautiful!! As you may have read in others' boxes where I've left a message or two, Frank and I have 3 children -- Victoria, turns 18 on 9/14 and is off on her first year at ISU (Iowa State U); Austin, turns 16 on 9/11, and Franchesca, our 11 year old. Reading Kas (Mancini's site) and that she has kids in their 20's MAKE me feel old. Well,, I remember when you and Dagmar came to visit us once. Do you remember? I'm sad to hear of the divorce. If you're ever around these here parts - give us a ringy-dingy, we're in the book. And say "Hi" to the Hagar from us. Love and hugs to ya!! One day I'll have Frank post pictures ---- I'm a little wary about posting pics on the web. They will never be deleted. They will be there until Christ comes back and even after that (I thnk)! LOL..... LOL....

Hi Tom,
Good to hear from you! Steven is loving married life. He has a great wife. She was a voice major at the International House of Prayer. She played piano and led praise and worship Sunday and it was awesome. She is really special. We don't have anything going on other than the regular church services on Sunday until the 1st weekend of November. Then, a guy who started a lot of Bible Colleges in Russia after the Iron Curtain fell will be speaking at the Barn. His name is Linus LeFever. He met with us once and is very into outreach. He's a great speaker, wonderful heart for God. Hope to see you soon.
Love and blessings,
Vicki

Damn NING removed Widget Laboratry from their network Banned him and all his cool Widgets including Member Map. Thousands of people were outraged, caused quite a stir in their organization. He got too popular and began making too much money. They silenced him. Now they are working on providing their own Widgets.

Good morning, Tom.

I remember you too. Thank you for the kind note. I'm busy working on my site. It will take a bit for me to put everything I'd like on it so keep checking back.

I just added some music I did with my WOW sisters from 1978 - not the greatest quality recording, but it did bring back some sweet memories and I'm hoping others will enjoy it.

God bless
