Personal |
Being born into a family of 8 children makes a person realize how important it is to get along with other people. Growing up in Eugene makes a person realize how important patience is to a sports fan. Getting married to Anna Lageson and having three little girls makes a person appreciate the strength of women and the need for more bathrooms in our home. |
