I grew up in New Cumberland, graduating from Cedar Cliff High School in 1963. Following my childhood passion for airplanes and flying, I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with an engineering degree in aerospace. Subsequently, I enjoyed a 34-year career with United Airlines as a pilot. Mimi and I raised our two daughters in New Jersey where she was very active in a local Presbyterian Church and I occasionally attended a UU Church in Princeton.
We moved back to New Cumberland in 1988 and both attended the Camp Hill Presbyterian Church. We joined Harrisburg UU about ten years ago. Several years ago I joined the choir. This significantly invigorated my spiritual journey and appreciation of this congregation.
I serve as a lay liturgist and participate in summer lay led worship. It is an honor to be asked to serve on the ministerial search committee.
