I started as Lead Mechanic in BIL where I worked through 1965 when the maintenance base was transferred to GTF. 
I worked there until 1966, when I was offered a position as General Foreman, Line Maintenance in DEN.
After a short stint in management, I chose to go back on the line as a Lead Mechanic in 1968 
and remained in that position until I retired in 1984, as People Express was buying Frontier out.
After my retirement, we remained in DEN, where Irene and I enjoyed golf, travel, gardening, 
and particularly getting together on a regular basis with a group of other FAL employees we called the Birthday Bunch. 
We gathered on each other's birthdays for years. 
The Bunch included: John Brenner, Larry Larsen, Bob Miesenbach, Bob Houston, Harold Wagner & Fred Gulliksen.
