I was born and raised in Geneva and have lived here 47 of 60 years. My Mother and Dad came to Geneva in the late 50's with a borrowed car and little money. They both worked very hard to establish Center Drug while raising my sister Cam and I. My Dad always taught us lessons of business and people. Treat everyone fair and with respect. Listen to people when they have a problem, help if you can. Work hard and long. Start early and leave late. That’s success. I practice his words every day in my professional and personal life. My wife Cindy was also born and raised in Geneva. We moved back to town in 1993 to raise our children here. This is our home. We love our town and its people. I never intended to enter politics but after a lot of prayer and a whole bunch of friend’s encouragements, I decided it was time to give back to my community.
