About Me Life My Spouse I met my wife Isabel (Aubry, Cope) (Redford Union High, Mi. class of 1968) at a Party threw her over my shoulder and took off only catch she was married. Three years later 1985 we were married. My Pets We have one dog a border collie named Kelsey. and one bird named Brandy a conure parrot. My Kids Sara is not our own but a severely handicapped miracle, we have had her since she was three months old we fostered her for three years she went back to her real mom for two years. Mom screwed up again and now we have her for good.Sara just turned 23 in Sept. 2014 and they said you don't want her, she won't live a year when we first got her. Sara passed away Nov. 11 2015.

I did inspection's on aircraft parts Boeing 737, 757, 767, 777, MD-11, Cessna, Bombardier, and Embraer Jets. I also have been involved in crash investigation's, I have seen parts from the bottom of the ocean, burnt, and with imbedded asphalt. So far none of my old companies parts have been to blame.
