About
An only child and a second generation American, my father was a functional alcoholic who taught me the meaning of hard work and relational disconnection. I had a nurturing, Italian mom. They divorced when I was a young teen; I felt hurt, angry, confused, lost and alone. I joined the US Marines at 17. That four-year stint resulted in drug addiction, two meritorious promotions, a spiritual awakening through Jesus Christ, and an honorable discharge; I have been sober since November 1976. I was married 40 years. My formal education includes: AS in allied health, BS in Bible, MDiv. ThM. and a Masters in Counseling.
