Luckily the Division moved offices to Houston in 1976 and I have been in Houston ever since. Primary avocations have always centered around Youth Athletics with coaching and officiating mainly baseball and soccer. Proudest accomplishment was starting the Public High School Soccer program at Spring High School in 1978.

The Good Lord brought Juliet Crowell, also a widow, into my life via a mutual friend who attends the same Church as me, and is a childhood friend of Juliet.
