I am here for Friends

About Me


I am retired from my jobs at the local general hospital: house orderly, medical unit clerk, and cardiac technician. I'm enjoyingmy middle age - traveling, appreciating the cowboy way of life, working with half a dozen websites, meeting fine people, and learning more of the Lord's love and blessings.
My closest friend is Frank Benson, who is one of God's finest creations. He has a heart of gold, and anyone who is acquainted with him can't help but love him. He's been like a father to me, and I am blessed, humbled and honored to be his friend.
I'm a TENOR SAX lover and player! Though I'm a novice, I'm improving! I also love to hear baritone and bass saxophone, and bass clarinet. It would be great to try to play them also someday!
I'm glad to make friends with you more experienced saxophonists, to listen to your sounds, and to have your advice. You're my inspiration to keep up with it!
I am also a graphical and portrait sketch artist.
Here is a link to my other page and sketch gallery.

My Interests



I am a big fan of COWBOY ACTION SHOOTING! I like to wear the western apparel and attend the shooting events. When I went to concerts by Sons of the San Joaquin, I visited shootouts in the Smoky Mountains and later near Sacramento CA. It's great fun to take on the Western stance and join in with the friendly frontier folk. And as a novice shootist, I hope to learn much more and have lots of fun doing it!

I'd like to meet:

You, who stopped here, of course!

I am glad to find friends who care about decency and personal dignity; who believe in God and the power of love! Let's leave the crude crowd behind and be friends!

I have met these folks, made their kind acquaintance,
and I consider them to be
the finest musicians in the world...
