About Me:

I retired from East Naples Fire on April 1, 2007. My wife and I had been traveling around the country in our RV since the afternoon of April 1, 2007.
We bought a home in Moro, IL on October 10, 2008. We will still travel a great deal but this will be our home base.

When I left my department I had no plans to get back in to the fire service. I stopped in to take a look at my local department and . . . I'm back!!

Why I Joined Fire/EMS

My father and my uncle were both firefighters with East Naples. I got involved with the department as a volunteer when I was 14 and hired when I was 18.
