My family essays have been published in San Diego Family Magazine since 1985. The essays presented here will give you a better sense of my personal marriage and parenting values.

The first two essays are letters I wrote to my children on their eighteenth birthdays (November '94 and August '97).

The next essay is a letter I wrote to my parents on the occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary (June '96).

The final essay explores what it means to be a “soul mate” within the context of marriage.

I hope you enjoy reading them.
