During my high school years I sang in the a capella choir, and I played guitar and sang in the church youth group. In college I studied organ and voice and served as organist and choir director in South Baptist Church in South Boston. During my seminary years I played organ at the Butler Nazarene Church and at Craig Chapel at Drew University. I continue to play the piano and the organ for personal enjoyment. I have made a hobby of collecting musical instruments.
Travel is another interest.
Ruth and I have made sightseeing trips throughout the northeast. We have traveled cross country to Florida and Arizona. One highlight trip was a flight to San Francisco and a tour through Sequoia and Yosemite National Parks. It has also been exciting to travel to Germany and Austria. In Switzerland Ruth and I looked up family roots on my father's side.
