That part of your life it started back in school having gotten a scholarship to DePaul University and my fraternity brothers to be and I were on the football team to get freshman football team and that that God have started you you’re taught by the housemother the proper ways you know and it’s amazing
How you learn how to set the silverware and you notice when people immediately when you’re sitting down somewhere who knows with the proper way or who doesn’t know the proper way you learn you learn because they teach you they have you do these things you’re dealing with other
Sororities what was your proudest moment in your whole in your life or in all the experiences you’ve had what was your proudest moment I can’t say that any one item I won the flip to be assigned a butch O’Hare squadron and I think the biggest honor came when he picked me as
His wingman so picking one might be a challenge I got married in two and a half weeks after the Marianas turkey shoot and and I never thought that it would happen like that because I I knew I was going to go back out again and picking my my
Wife to be there we ended up everybody said oh it’ll never last it’ll never last but it turned out we were married for 59 years and we had five children 11 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren and another one coming I can’t think of anything more that would be contributory to
