After nearly 50 years in Christian broadcasting, I turned to real estate in 2014 as a way to stay busy and useful in my "retirement" years. I have loved every minute of my new career and found it to be very fulfilling. I look at it more as a way to help people than to simply buy and sell houses and businesses. While still moonlighting as a play-by-play broadcaster for local high school basketball and football games, I pursue other hobbies such as golf and keeping up with all the professional sports. I'm a life-long and die-hard fan of the Detroit Tigers and the Detroit Lions. I was born in West Michigan and have lived here virtually all my life, with a brief break for service in the United States Army from 1967-1970. I have been married for almost 49 years. We have 2 children and 4 grandchildren. I have been blessed with good health and a great life!
