My family returned in 1963 and Alaska has been my home since. I worked for Larson's Inc. for 10 years and when the family decided to retire, they offered me the trophy section of their business. I took them up on their offer and still going strong. The name was changed from Larson's Trophies because I wanted people to know that we did much more than trophies. I enjoy my work because I can't possibly get bored.
