I was born in the small town of Highland Illinois just 20 miles from St. Louis. It was a Swiss/German settlement in 1837. Our family is mosly Swiss , but also part Irish, not German. I have a brother and 2 sisters. We moved to Springfield Illinois at age 4. I went to undergrad school in Springfield and Chiropractic school in St. Louis. After graduation in 1988 I moved to Tennessee because of the mountains and lakes. I went back to Illinois that October and married Jamie Mosely from Pana Illinois. She is of English descent. We have 3 children, Morgan (1989), Mallory,(1992) and Evan (1996). Morgan married Walt Doty in October 2020, and we have a grandson Murphy born October a year later.
I enjoy tennis, golf, skiing, hiking, fishing, boating, and traveling to new places. I watch a lot of drag racing and Tennessee football. My kids were deeply involved in soccer which kept us busy for many years. They were all three quite successful. I would be happy to brag on them if you asked me.
I joined Kiwanis at the suggestion of my first banker, Rick Bettis shortly after I started my practice in 1988. I didn't know much about it at the time but have been quite involved ever since. I have brought well over a dozen new members to the club over the years.
I have been president 2 1/2 times and Lt. Governor. I am sure I will continue to be involved many more years, as I enjoy the relationships I have made and the difference we make in the community and around the world.
