Serving God with His people at Faith OPC has been a great joy and blessing. When I grow up, I want to umpire Little League Baseball. I will revel on that day when I can say to a 10-year-old boy after four pitched balls, "Take a walk in the sunshine." My wife of 30+ years, Peggy, consistently demonstrates the love of Christ and remains my very best friend. Our six children, our four lovely, sweetie-pie daughters-in-law, and our four grandchildren serve as resident theologians.

Baseball Anniversary 20 Years Ago for Father and Son

1990 Headline: Griffey Jr & Sr – First Father/Son Tandem To Go Back-To-Back Rockets!!

Yesterday afternoon, as the 20th Anniversary-----September 14, 1990, the fans of the California Angels, sitting at Angels stadium in Anaheim, witnessed the very first father-son duo hit back to back shots out of the park. I think it was Ken Griffey, Sr. hitting just ahead of Jr.

The Seattle Mariners lost to the Angels, but the historic occasion is well-remembered.
