I
grew up in Lincoln County Missouri, where I lived outside of Troy
with my parents and three brothers. As a family we attended the
First Assembly of God Church in Troy. I attribute my personal
belief and value system to the fact I was raised in a Christian
household, and that a big part of my social life as a young person
was deeply rooted in our church. My fondest childhood memories
are of camping with my parents and grandparents on the Mississippi
River, or at Table Rock Lake, and the many fishing and hunting
trips with my brothers and parents.
In 1989 I married Cindy Roettger who was also from
Troy. We had been dating since our junior year in high school. Cindy
has been a hair stylist in Troy since 1986. Together we have made
Warren County our home. In July of 1994 our daughter Stephanie was
born, and then in December of 1998 our son Kolton was born. We attend
the First Christian Church of Washington. My interests outside of
work are fishing, hunting, target shooting, going to the movies,
and any activity that involves time with my wife or children. In
2006 Cindy and I started taking Imperial Swing Dance lessons with
friends, and have enjoyed laughing with and at each other as we
learn to dance.
