I WAS BORN in Germany November 29TH 1961.
9 1/2 lbs and 23 inches long at birth, a good start to my 6 foot 4 inch, 250 lbs body I have now.
my DAD WAS IN THE air FORCE AND HE WAS STATIONED IN Wiesbaden, Germany FOR APROX. 2 YEARS, JUST ENOUGH TIME FOR ME AND MY SISTER (BARB) TO BE BORN. then WE CAN BACK TO THE STATES TO LIVE. my sister Becky WAS THE NEXT ONE IN THE FAMILY AND SHE WAS BORN IN Waco, TX. with A SMALL JOG TO California FOR A FEW MONTHS the Pickering family ENDED UP IN Dayton Ohio. there I SPENT MOST OF MY CHILD HOOD AND ALL MY TEEN YEARS GROWING UP IN new Carlisle Ohio, JUST ABOUT 10 MILES NORTH OF Dayton.
I GRADUATED IN 1980 FROM Tecumseh high SCHOOL AND SPENT MY SUMMER WORKING AND GETTING READY FOR COLLEGE. I WENT TO Wright state university studying for Electrical Engineering. I made it to a Junior standing before I dropped out. At this same time I married my high school sweet heart Kelly. We had a son (Ryan) in 1982.
By 1984 things turned for the worst and we were divorced and I moved to Florida. I met Rosemary and we were married in 1985. I got a job at UPS that same year. Libby was born in 1988 in Naples.
In 1995 we moved to Punta Gorda Florida about 70 miles north of Naples. We were there until we divorced in 2000.
I moved back to Naples and met Debbie. in 2000 and we were married (march 17 2001). She has 3 children (Tina, Jeff and Tiffany). In 2002 2 grandchildren were born. Mikayla to Jeff and Ava, and Jayden to Tina.
Hobbies
I love to play on computers. I have a little side job where I help people get started on the computer, or need help with the computer. It is fun for me to tinker around with things.
I like to do wood working too. I have a lot of tools for this and I have made things from toys to furniture and everything in-between.
I played racquet ball allot when I was younger but have slowing grown out of that faze if you know what I mean. The old body doesn't do what it used too.
I love water sports of all kinds I guess that is why I ended up in Florida. I love to swim, Boat, Fish all that stuff that involves the water.
