Gary holds a B.S. in Art Education degree from Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff. While Gary was in military service with the Navy, he took full advantage of his opportunities to travel and see the world. To quote Gary regarding his experiences... I was fortunate enough to be able to travel a lot while in the Navy. Besides shore duty on both coasts of the United States, I also was able to visit the Orient and Europe. The ship on which I was stationed took a cruise to the West Pacific, and I visited Hong Kong, Japan, Philippines, Taiwan, and Okinawa. Our ship was then put into a new fleet and cruised through the Panama Canal and across the Atlantic to the Mediterranean. We were home ported in Naples. Itahly, and during the two and one-ha- lf years I was there I traveled throughout Europe. Although I missed home sometimes, it was a great opportunity and I took advantage of the chance to see all I could. I feel I grew and gained an appreciation for different cultures. The ship I was stationed on was the U.S.S. Piedmont. It was a service ship to destroyers. My job was that of medic in sick bay. Gary and Kathleen received many . scholastic and athletic awards during their high school and college careers.
