Thanks for your invite. As you can tell, I haven't checked the site for quite a while!

When you have time, please tell me about you and your family and how you found this site. I just turned 74, but feel more like 59 and holding! I have two kids that live in Denver along with 4 grandkids. When I was 14 I heard Dawson speak at a summer 'Youth for Christ' conference. Wow, as I now think about it - the time as sure flown by fast!! I moved from Denver to Norfolk, VA in 1968 to get training with the Nav's - Skip Gray had started a couples training program there along with Ron York and Bob Lewis.

Have a great day! (if it would be easier, here is my Email: cliff@cliffnorton.com
