After graduating from College High I enrolled at Oklahoma State University where I met my wife to be, Lynda Swearingen, Class of '62. We were married June 12,1965. I graduated from OSU with a B.S. degree in Microbiology in 1966. On January 1967 I took a job with the Department of Defense at Pine Bluff Arsenal in Pine Bluff, AR. In 1969 I transferred from D.O.D. to the Food and Drug Administration (The National Center for Toxicological Research) located in Pine Bluff. I worked for the F.D.A. in Pine Bluff until January of 'O2 at which time I retired.
Lynda and I have 2 daughters, Debra Lynn and Michele Leigh. Debbie was born in '67 and Michele was born in December of '70. Both girls are married but to date we have no grandchildren. Lynda retired in 2005 from the State of Arkansas Employment Security Division and since then we have done considerable traveling via cruise ships.
