What do you do in your spare time?
I work with many non-profits and flying organizations. I enjoy flying my Bonanza aircraft, scuba diving and spending time with my wife, our family and especially our seven grandkids.
Describe your work with non-profit organizations/charities:
The primary non-profit organization I support is Liga International, The Flying Doctors of Mercy (www.ligainternational.org). Since 1934, Liga has been dedicated to improving the health and well-being of the people of Sinaloa, Mexico by providing free health care and education.
I provide web development services, business systems, accounting support and I am also a pilot for Liga.
The first Friday of each month from October through June, 15-20 privately owned airplanes deliver volunteers and supplies to remote LIGA clinics. There, hundreds of needy people are given medical, dental, and eye care that they would not get otherwise. Plastic surgeons repair cleft lips, cleft palates, remove tumors, skin cancers, and repair burn scars. General surgeons perform hernia operations. Podiatrists straighten club feet so children can walk. Long-neglected teeth are filled or removed. Ophthalmologists remove scores of cataracts. Glasses are fitted and sight is restored to the blind. An audiologist provides hearing aids and hearing is restored or improved. Many of these offer the local children the ability to attend school and obtain a better future.
Why did you get involved with these groups?
I wanted to combine my passion for travel and life with giving back to others.
Something you can’t say no to:
My wife and grandkids. The key to a happy relationship is “Yes, dear”. The grandkids are all the fun of kids with none of the responsibility and conflict. Who can say no to that?
