I served a mission for my church in California, where I worked with the Hispanics and learned Spanish. I married Carolyn Morgan in 1970. I graduated from Utah State University in 1971 with a BA in Spanish and minors in English, German, and music. I worked in a business for a number of years and then obtained a juris doctor from Brigham Young University in 1981 and have worked as an attorney for over thirty years in various governmental agencies. I am currently semiretired from the law. I have five children and twelve grandchildren and have lived in Carson City, Nevada, for nearly twenty-five years. I speak four languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, and German, in order of fluency. I read those languages and speak some, but read French and Italian. I began writing poetry in college at USU but became serious about it in the 1980s. I am involved in music and play the organ for my church and direct the church choir.lihat lebih sedikit
