Now in his eighth decade, he is supposedly retired, except Ro won’t leave him alone, demanding that her story be told. He has been married to his best friend for more than 30 years and has three grown stepchildren and seven step-grandchildren. He lives next to the Mississippi River in Rock Island, Illinois, along with a grumpy cat and a Yorkie mix that’s 80% cute and 20% brat.
