His parents early on were teachers earning $100.00 per month combined salaries. His father was a coach of all sports and his mom an elementary school teacher. Although he was to become a member of Mensa his early schooling was poor and his scholastic record was unremarkable. <p/>He developed an early love of aircraft, and when the Korean War need for pilots reduced the college requirement for a college degree, he became an aviation cadet in the USAF. After his discharge he returned to The University of Texas. <p/>His first job was with a major insurance company and in his first year was the number one agent in his division. His sales ability led him into many entrepreneurial experiences. Including importing yachts from the orient, and aircraft and arms sales. <p/>He built two large storage facilities and other major construction projects. Probably his most interesting project was a large gold mining company occupying twenty-two square miles in the California desert south of Las Vegas, Nevada. <p/>A recurring problem was alcoholism. He returned to college and received a degree in Alcohol and Drug Counseling. As pen touches paper he has had over 35 years of no alcohol in his system. He has shared his sobriety with hundreds of other men and women and much of the last twenty years have been occupied with sharing his knowledge of recovery. <p/>Bob lives in San Diego, CA with his wife of fifty-three years.<br>
