Volunteer Minister
I was ordained a volunteer minister in 1974 as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. For many years I served as a ministerial servant until I was appointed as an elder and a regular pioneer in 1994. Since then I served ten years in Great Barrington, Massachusetts as the congregation secretary and served in the volunteer ministry with my wife who is also an ordained minister and regular pioneer. For six months my wife and I volunteered to work construction at the Patterson Education Center for Jehovah's Witnesses in Patterson, NY. I worked in the plumbing department and my wife worked in pipe insulating. For over one year my wife and I volunteered on construction work at the Natick Assembly Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, Natick, Massachusetts insulating pipes. For over seven years we insulated pipes on Kingdom Halls through New England volunteering with the Massachusetts Regional Building Committee of Jehovah's Witnesses. Since March 2004 we both moved to Pahala, Hawaii and serve as regular pioneers with the Naalehu Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses and I serve as the service overseer.
I am currently volunteering also in the Hawaii Correctional Prison visiting inmates who request Jehovah's Witnesses.

Volunteer Founder and Webmaster for the
Rosacea Research and Development Institute
On June 7, 2004 I founded the above non profit institute for rosaceans to have an alternative to other non profit organizations which use the majority of donated funds to run the organization. Many non profit organizations use the donated funds for salaries. From 1999 on it was apparent to me that something needed to be done for finding a cure for rosacea with a non profit organization that listens to rosaceans and doesn't spend the majority of the donations on running the organization but on the actual research. I have devoted many volunteer hours to set this organization up and its website. For more info > irosacea.org

Volunteer Fire Rescue EMT and EMT Instructor
In 1981 thru 1985 I was a volunteer with the Lybrook, New Mexico Volunteer Fire Department on the Rescue vehicle running up and down State Highway 44 to numerous vehicle accidents and out on the Navajo Reservation rescuing Navjao Indians. I was the inservice EMT Instructor and taught two EMT classes, continuing inservice training and CPR.
