Something About Us!

Rocke:

I was born in Sacramento, CA, on February 16, 1941, but grew up in Cottage Grove, Oregon. I have two older brothers and a younger sister. I lost both of my parents to different causes in 1968. I graduated from high school in Cottage Grove, worked and went to school at Willamette University and subsequently to the University of Oregon for four years majoring in Physics. I left the university in 1963 to enlist in the Air Force for four years. I married Caroline R. Stotler, while in the Air Force, on March 27, 1965. Our first son, Robin, was born in New York where I was stationed.

After discharge from the Air Force, I moved back to Portland, with my wife and son, where I have worked since. I also went back to college and got my degree in Marketing. Caroline and I had two addtional sons, Ross in 1972, and Ryan in 1973.
