Welcome

Boomer Of The Month - December 1998

At age 36, he was a burned out former high school 
teacher, unsure of what he wanted to do with the 
rest of his life. Then Lou was diagnosed with 
Parkinsons Disease. He decided then to start 
living again. In the 10 years since then he 
completed a graduate degree in education, and 
one in pastoral care (seminary).  

Lou also served as a resident chaplain at a 
major metropolitan area trauma center, been 
ordained to the ministry, fathered children 
#s 1,2 and 3 (2and 3 were twins), relocated 
to teach special education to young adults
in inner city Detroit.
 
Now, at 46 he finds that he does not have time 
to let PD push him into decline. He is too busy 
coaching tee-ball, attending cub scout meetings, 
playing husband (and bowling). Although he is 
somewhat hobbled by the infirmity, he is living 
his life to the fullest, and having the best 
time of his life, amused at the thought of 
turning 50 in a few short years, and grateful 
for the ability to sort out the important 
from the unimportant. 

Among the many activities Lou refuses to give 
up, is that to make frequent trips back home 
to Kentucky to use his season tickets to 
watch his beloved NCAA Champion Kentucky 
Wildcats basketball team.     

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND MANY HAPPY NEW YEARS TO LOU AND HIS LOVELY FAMILY.
