One thing that no one knows about me is: Billy Joel was a friend of my brother. When I came home from school one day in 1961, I found a large number of kids in the house having a party. They apparently were skipping school. I told all of them to get out of the house (Billy Joel was in that group).

Now the hard one...tell us what we need to know...50 years in the space below:
I was a school Principal for 32 years, I was honored as Instructional Leader for Henrico County Schools (1994), and was the Grand Marshall for the Glen Allen (a community near Richmond , VA ) annual parade in 2003.

Finally, if you had to do it all over again, I would...be more active in school activities at Hicksville H.S.
