About Me
I was in a wonderful, exciting and productive relationship with Sandra Wilson, PhD for 23 years and married to her for 18 of those years. I am currently married to Mary Tinker-Bartz, since 2017. This too, is a very loving relationship. I am a very lucky person. I have an adult son and daughter of whom I am very proud, each with their own families.
