I am a para at Woodlawn this year. I have degrees from Kansas State University and I am retired from being a teacher of fourth, fifth, and sixth graders in Manhattan. I am father to two young men and grandpa to Stella, and best buddy to Caesar, who never fails to meet me at the door with a wagging tail when I get home. I love to read, write, and garden, and I enjoy helping at my son’s Firefly Flower Farm (come see us at the Lawrence Farmers Market), south of Lawrence. I look forward to a great year!
