I attended NIU in DeKalb after graduating from East High. I majored in chemistry & math and graduated in June of 1967. I joined the U.S. Army Reserve very soon after college to fullfil my military obligation. After teaching high school chemistry for a short period, I work in industrial laboratories: Valspar Paint, Warner Lambert Quality Control, Rockford Chemical Coatings, and M.C. Chemical Co.. Because of the severe recession in 1980, I next entered retail paint sales. This employment spanned 21 years, and was followed by Lowe's Home Center where I accepted employment in paint and hardware. I am currently emloyed by the Rockford Lowe's store.
