2023

I retired at the end of 2022 after 43 years in banking, essentially with the same company. I am enjoying playing more golf, and Anne and I now have the flexibility to spend some more time at our Jersey Shore ‘get-a-way’ and travel more broadly as well. However, the real governor on our mobility is whether we are needed to help with grandkid duties for our two local kids’ families. We were blessed to welcome grandchild number six in early April. So there are four boys and two girls, all under age 4. Our oldest son married a Brit, has two boys, and lives in England, which has us making approximately two trips per year across the Atlantic. Although I am no longer a racquet sports guy, who over the years played interclub tennis with Mike McCarthy, I still see Tad Stellmann at various paddle tennis events and will often fork over my two dollar lost wagers to Mac Ross on the golf course.
