I am originally from Upstate New York. and grew up the catholic tradition. When I was 10 years old, I was diagnosed with cancer. That experience made my faith grow stronger, knowing that The Lord has a plan for me.
Once I graduated, I came down to go to the University of South Carolina where I met my wife, Jenny. We have been married over 37 years. Before I retired, I worked in the food service business for 32 years, often having the opportunity to share the God's word with
my employees. At the age of 52 I had a major stroke, once again I put my faith in the Lord and my prayers were answered.
​
Jenny and I have been members of Rivercrest Presbyterian Church since the doors first opened and we were meeting in the old gymnasium. We have found our church family and a place where we love serving, fellowshipping, and worshiping the Lord.
