My wife, Cherie, and I have been married twelve years and reside in Petoskey. A Petoskey native, Cherie is foremost a mom to our two children, Jonathan and Hannah, and works with the Northern Michigan Hospital Foundation as a Planned Giving Officer. She values her volunteer work at the Community Free Clinic and helping many non-profits obtain grant funding for their worthwhile projects. In her spare time, Cherie enjoys reading and the family horse, Sadie.
Jonathan, age 12, is in the 6th grade and spends most of his time outside with his neighbor friends, the "Greenwood Gang." He enjoys building, skiing, shooting, playing football, the saxophone, video games, and caring for animals of all kinds!
Hannah, age 10, is in 4th grade and is usually found playing with the "Greenwood Gang" friends or her Christmas puppy, Rascal; working on her 4H scrapbook; or dreaming about showing Sadie in the county fair.
Together, our family enjoys all that Michigan has to offer whether it be snow shoeing, swimming, camping, horseback riding or traveling together.
