A little
history of the family.
Janelle was born in 1964. She
grew up with love of sports, and everything outdoors. While in high school she
played volleyball; they went to state finals. She ran the hurdles in track.
Janelle completed 1 year at South East Missouri State University. We moved to Southern
Califorina that summer and Janelle went with us. She
completed her studies and graduated from California State University,
Northridge. She then worked in Information Technology for the next several
years. Her sister introduced her to a super nice guy Mitch. They got married in
1993. For the next couple years; Mitch studied and got his Masters and began
working as Diretor of Treasury in the movie industry.
His experience netted him a great job in Colorado. When they closed that
facility, Mitch had the opportunity to move to New Jersey or London, England.
Yep he chose London. The kids were at an age where they were self sustaining, so away Mitch and Janelle moved to London
for nearly three years. Upon their return home to Colorado, the company offered
Mitch a job that will help them in their move to a new computer system. Janelle
returned to her job as a Para-Legal, and her love helping in a bible study
group. She has a deep faith and love for our Lord Jesus Christ.
In 1996 David was born, followed
by Mitchell in 1997 and last but not least Amy joined the clan in 1999.
We will start with David; while
in High School David started dating a young lady by the name of Desarae.
Besides of love for Desarae,
he had a love for cars and motorcycles. After graduating high school David went
to a school for auto mechanics and took a part time job hanging computer
cabling. David had a knack for that type of work and made the job permanent. It
should be noted that he has great hands and is good at home repairs etc. David
and Desarae were married in 2019, a couple years
later along came a darling little girl Daphne in 2019 followed another little
sweetie Delani 2023. David is now a foreman with the
same company.
Next for Janelle and Mitch was
another son Mitchell born 1997. Growing up Mitchell had a love for sports
tennis and baseball in particular. Mitchell went to college and is now working
as Technical Account Manager for a company. They handle several different
residential and apartment complexes
dealing with utilities; and he is the proud master of
a Corgi puppy named Seaver.
And last but not least their
daughter Amy was born 1999. Amy has a love for sports in Volley Ball/Soccer and
still does today. She finished High School and went college. In her last year
she did a study abroad
in Prague. After the semester ended she lived in London with mom and dad. After
graduation she worked in retail supply chain and then switched to marketing/sales where
she works today.
Janet and I are really blessed
with all five plus the two Great-Grand Daughters and love them very much.
