5 years in Ann Arbor,MI. Many Wolverine football victories. BSPharm, U of MI, 1979. Married July,14,1979. Moving back to MI from one of the armpits of America (Joliet, IL)The birth of my 3 daughters and many proud moments with each one.
2014 has been a big year for our family. Laura and I celebrated our 35th anniversary. Amanda, our eldest, changed from a professional student to a teacher of English Literature at Rhodes College. Elise completed a cross-country move to Portland, Oregon where she is now in grad school studying counseling. Kelly Joy graduated this past spring from Grand Valley (GVSU). and married Kyle Tait on August 10. She is now a social worker.

Relocating to Holland, MI in 1987 was also a big highlight for us. Opening a pharmacy and closing the pharmacy were also both highlights. Currently, I'm working as a Pharmacist for Airway Oxygen in Grand Rapids (Wyoming) MI. Laura is a Medical Technologist at Holland Hospital.

Several times a year as my in-laws still live there.

Randy Smith lives in Holland.
Also Tom & Margie (VandeWater) Houseman. It's a sign of a truly great friend when they'll travel from Oklahoma to Michigan for a 50th birthday party.

None that stuck.

I enjoy golf, though I'm not great at it. Trying to get competitive would spoil my enjoyment of it. I'm passionate about white-water rafting (just wish we had some WW in the midwest) Getting together w/friends & family, Euchre, Pinochle. Ping pong. Hiking. We're active in our church and love it there. I also enjoy a good book and watching Michigan Football (excluding several recent seasons) and Basketball.

I owned a pharmacy for a few years in Holland, but found other ways to make a living more easily.

More on my daughters: Amanda Michelle, 31, born in Charlotte, MI, graduated 2001 Holland HS, continued at Indiana Wesleyan Univ. then Univ.N.Carolina,Charlotte, then on to U.Md. She married Josh Dykema from Zeeland, MI in 2004 and is realizing her dream this fall of being an English professor.

Also led groups to Calcutta, India where she spent a week in a hospital. (Parents - "can you say powerlessness?") Elise Graduated from Indiana Wesleyan after returning stateside. This past year - she became a barista and began a photography business (google Elise Hulce photo to see how an art student does photography.) Recently she drove across the country to her new home in Portland, Oregon, where she is now in graduate school at Portland State University, seeking a Masters Degree in Counseling.
Kelly Joy (24), also graduated from Holland HS, spent 1 year as an exchange student in Bahia Blanca, Argentina and another in Chile with Youth with a Mission. She speaks Spanish like a native. August 10, 2014 she married Kyle Tait (another male in the family! - see photos)
I thank God for my wife and for each of our kids. We are extremely proud of them.
No grand kids yet, just an aging grand dog, though prospects are improving.
