A scripture that is meaningful to me:  I Corinthians 13: 1-8 is a passage I remember my mother reading to me from my earliest days. I attempt to live it out as best I can each day in my thoughts and actions.

My favorite restaurant in Wilmington is . . . Choosing just one is hard! I have to say good friends at Parchies, hugs at PT’s, date nights at Cape Fear Seafood and family celebrations at the Port City Chop House.

My favorite activity in town is . . . My wife and I love to spend time on the water with our adult children, their spouses, and our granddaughter.  We also enjoy attending UNCW athletic events together.
