Colleen and I met our freshmen year at McDowell in 1983, and while good friends, never dated. It wasnt until a year after graduation in August of 1988 that we began to spending time together as boyfriend/girlfriend. Five short years later, we were married in May of 1993.

Anthony entered our life in February of 1996 and completed our family circle. Anthony began attending the very school I taught at in 2010 and graduated from Cathedral Prep in 2014. One of my proudest days was the day he walked across the stage and became part of the Cathedral Prep Alumni.

Our family has had four locations in its lifetime - an apartment on 16th Street above my grandmothers house, a house in the city of Erie on 34th Street, Colleen’s childhood home in Millcreek on Larchmont Drive, and now our final home in Waterford on Woodbine Drive.
