| What is your most memorable childhood experience? | Many great experiences qualify. Most memorable was spending four years in the Pacific northwest. We lived on two acres and had lots to do outdoors, plus we went to the beach a lot. |
| What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | My dad. We are both quite tall, and he was very involved throughout my youth and to this day. He is one of my best friends. |
| What character traits do you admire in an individual? | I admire loyalty, honesty, kindness, dependability and humor! |
| What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | Probably one time when I was at a college party and we were drinking and playing games. It got to truth or dare, and I took dare. I had to switch clothes with a girl who was about 5'4". Being 6'8", it was rather comical to strut around in her tiny clothes for half the night! |
| If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | I would go to Rome and Greece, the birthplace of rational thought and philosophy. |
| When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | Since I have two already, I can say that I would want to pass on to them all the characteristics of a good human being. The things I mentioned above about what I admire. But also to be humble, generous, and to stand up for themselves and others! |
