I am honest, sincere, clean, loyal, and true, and getting old. I love the Lord and have remained a faithful, active member of His Church all of my life. I have a deep, abiding appreciation for His amazing creations that surround us. I see sunrises and sunsets as His personal expression, in living, dynamic artwork, of His love for us, to please our eyes and gladden our hearts. I have had two temple marriages but am still without my eternal companion. My most important goal in life has always been to find her, and continue to do all I can to become the man she will want to be with for eternity. I have spent about half of my life in the trades; heavy construction, equipment operating, truck driving, mechanics, electrical, plumbing, horse training and horse shoeing, and the other half as a teacher in high school, community college, at a state men's correctional facility, and early morning seminary. I have always taken care of my body; have never used alcohol, tobacco, or drugs, and always tried to stay in shape. I have always honored and respected womanhood. When I was a boy, and my mother was in the kitchen, alone, cleaning up after dinner, and my brothers and father had abandoned her for the television, I would always stay with her and help. She would say, " You go ahead and relax with your Dad and brothers". And, I would say, "I will help you. We will finish sooner, and then we can all relax together". I will always be courteous to you, and do my best to make you feel appreciated, cared for, and loved.

I like to be productive and creative. I usually have a garden. I love music, the outdoors, and have arrived at a season in my life where I hope to be able to travel, with my sweetheart. Although I am approaching the sunset of my years, there is still a budding musician, artist, and poet inside. I am learning violin, and enjoying harmonizing with others to make music. I served a mission in Mexico, but my Patriarchal Blessing suggests that I am not finished serving missions, so, I have continued to improve my Spanish language skills. I am a state certified translator and tester in California. I love my country and will serve however I can to help her in her present distress, as I find appropriate and effective battle fronts. I believe I am a true patriot.
