I’ve been married to Dorothy (Dolly) Parsons since 4/20/1963. We have one son and one daughter, four grandsons, and two great-grandsons. We live in Victory, NY and spend winters at our place in Florida.
I completed machinist apprenticeship at Sealright Corp. in Fulton and Model Maker apprenticeship at Xerox in Webster, NY. I also took night classes at RIT. I worked for Xerox in Research and Development for 32 years and retired at age 53. Dolly and I also raised Christmas trees and nursery stock for 32 years. I served on the NYS Christmas Tree Board of Directors for six years, co-chaired state meetings for two years and chaired the NYS Tree Growers State Fair activities for many years.
I served as Scout Master for three years and twenty five years in the Victory Fire Department, five as Chief. I also served five years on the Town Planning Board, four as chairman, and served a couple of years as Town Justice.
I enjoy hunting and fishing and am a member of the Red Creek Conservation Club. Dolly and I are members of the Bayside Cruisers Car Club, which we started in 1959. Dolly owns a 1983 Mustang convertible and I have a few cars of my own. I also belong to EAA Chapter 1017 and have enjoyed owning and flying two of my own planes. We have been blessed and have a place in Florida where we belong to bicycle and kayak clubs
