Where did you grow up?

I grew up in Cleveland, Ohio and much of my family still lives there. I am a die-hard Cleveland sports fan and spend a great deal of time attending sporting events. These include all OSU football and basketball games as well as Columbus Blue Jacket hockey games. I also have season tickets to both the Cleveland Indians and Cavaliers.

Did you have any favorite interests / activities when you were a child?

Growing up and to this day I played all sports but have been a lifetime tennis player. Even in my 60’s I still participate and regularly win tournaments.

What do you like to do in your spare time?

Both my daughters are grown, married and each has given us the joy of two grandchildren. We are kept busy babysitting our two local grandkids and visiting our two Cleveland granddaughters, bringing them special treats like doughnuts and Graeter’s ice cream.

What are your favorite foods / restaurants?

My favorite foods are popcorn and black jelly beans. I love Italian food: pizza, pasta, eggplant parmigiana. Giuseppe’s in Bexley is my favorite restaurant.
