He attended Washington Elementary School in La Porte, Indiana and later went on to graduate from La Porte High School, class of 1969.  He proceeded to join the United States Air Force that August.  He stayed in the military serving 13 years with an honorable discharge.  While stationed in Guam, he took up Marshall Arts and discovered he was very passionate about it.  He soon discovered he had to register his hands.  As they and he had become considered by law, a lethal weapon.  He loved to cook and also loved to shop with a passion.  Food was his way of showing love.
