  • I did a early retirement at age 62, at the time my wife was experiencing bad health ( serious back problems eating, walking, Bathing, restroom, ) she needed assistance moving around so I had to play the role of caregiver, her condition was Diagnosed as Sciatica, in 2023 her condition started to improve, today she no longer needs a caregiver we even go on daily walks.

  • I really miss going to work everyday it gave me a sense of purpose, no day is the same, many years of experience not just production wise but also in safety, lots of discussions and film on being safe, every Monday all shifts, if you gave me the opportunity to be a part of your organization you would not regret it, because of my strong knowledge and experience and age I think I am a asset, still have a lot to offer.
