Be aware that the following page is devoted to my friends and family, and
therefore has the potential for being seen as boring by those not listed here.
But, in any case, enjoy and get to know Claire's world a bit....
My mother, Marlene, should also be up on the web sometime soon. She is big
into family, and has lived in Grand Rapids all her life. And while my brother and I
loathe the city, mom believes in being around family. And there's something to be
said for visiting the homestead--no matter where the location.
Marlene loves geneology, gardening, and has two dogs--Yogi and Alexei--which
I'm sure will be featured on her page. She is a very cool woman, who has
entered the "I feel comfortable with myself" phase of life--very attractive
in women.
For more on mom, and a photo history of my late great, eccentric
father, Skip, see Andrew's Big
Blue Ball, my brother's page.
And, if you opted not to take the tour of my family photo shrine at Andrew's,
then let me introduce you to Andrew, my brother. This is the most ecclectic man I know,
and has gone through every passion in life--painting, gaming, drawing, Hearts, the man becomes
obsessed. It is also safe to say that most everything that I hated about him when I was twelve
and he was seventeen, I love now--right down to Steely Dan. He has very good taste, and has been on
the web longer than anyone I know. I was disconnecting him when I was fourteen....
He's now attempting to conquer L.A., with a big fat new computer job to go along with it. Big brain and even bigger heart. Check his page now.
