My older brother Don, unlike his little brother (me), was a man of few words. When Don talked, it was a good idea to listen, as he didn't mince words and he cut to the chase most every time he spoke. Don was six years older than me, and during his last few years, things went from being okay to being bad to being worse.
Sometimes progress is not really progress at all…take the medical system, for instance. Billie and I tied the proverbial knot 58 years ago and have lived in this community for the entirety of our marriage. As with any Leave It to Beaver family, shortly after we married, we added a son and a daughter.
Sadly, I am experiencing growing pains … again. Seventy years ago, I was an emaciated 11-year-old, a weakling who weighed 70 pounds, living in a single-parent home with cardboard walls, located directly across from Red Bluff High School. The good news is that as life turned out, that home and the other people who lived […]

Today I write about my sister, Judy. If you read my column, you already know that I was raised in a single-parent home by the best mother in the world, who for the first dozen years of my life supported her three children by working as a maid at the iconic Tremont Hotel.
Yesterday my daughter took a day out of her busy life to come to our home and assist her mother in the latest round of decluttering the hoarder room. I am pretty sure I am going to be in big trouble when Billie reads this column and sees that I referred to our third bedroom as a hoarder room, so let me preface my remarks by saying that Billie keeps an immaculate home when I am not around to mess it up… Well anyway, let me start at the beginning.
Here's hoping you had a great Labor Day weekend. In keeping with the holiday, today I share with you all of the jobs I have held over the past eight decades.
