About Kevin

I am a faithful husband of one bride, father of five precious children, grandfather of seven wonderful grandchildren, and a follower of Jesus Christ. I have much to learn as I study to deepen my covenant relationship with the God of the Bible and with my family, through my obedient dependence on the creator of all nature and life. I am a Process Engineer by trade, self taught IT Technician, and a hunting enthusiast by virtue of my rural upbringing. I am an vehicle accident survivor (of near death), saved by the amputation of my right leg at age 16. Serving others thru creator endowed interests is my true joy.
