I was born and raised in Frankenmuth and spent most of my adult life in Midland, MI with my wife Cindy and two children, Matthew and Alyssa.  My family has enjoyed recreating in the Cadillac area for many years. Once I retired as an IT Project Manager, Cindy and I moved to Cadillac and my first retirement job was as a lifeguard at the Cadillac Area YMCA.   My in-laws, Don and Pat Lakin, were founding members of the Y and I appreciate the programs, services and opportunities the Y provides the Cadillac community.  Over the years, many family members have worked at Camp Torenta, and this summer my grandchildren will attend Camp T!    I believe in the mission of the Y so much, that I even agreed to dance in public!
