Born and raised in southern NH In the small town of Hinsdale. Married for over 30 years and have two adult children, a son and a daughter. I was in industrial sales for a living and spent 29 years working in my town as a firefighter/EMT and was Emergency Management Director for ten years. I’ve been an avid Harley Davidson driver for the past 10 years.

My cancer journey started on Jan 6, 2017 . 21 days before my 47th birthday. I had no family history and had no other predispositions.

I find that attitude is as important to recovery as anything you can do. Cancer has the great feature to put your mortality right in your face but one has to remember that tomorrow is never guaranteed no matter what your health currently is. I might have cancer but I won’t let it have me.
