Recently selected by the Omicron Tau Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc as the "Founders Lifetime Achievement Award", and Service Award for 50 years of Service. Current Chairman of the Fort Pierce Central School Advisory Council.

It took over 30 years for our Football Team to be recognized for our accomplishments in 1970. Let us not forget our humble beginnings. Central is the Offspring of Lincoln Park Academy and Dan McCarty high school. We would not be Who We Are today if not for BOTH of our Parents. Let's Not Forget. Most of us attended Two High schools. Our story is Worthy to be Told.
I Retired from Fort Pierce Central in June 2015. Wow, 50 years. 2021. Still volunteering at FPC.
