over 30 years, raising 3 children while running a very active & varied architectural practice.  They now have 4 grandchildren & will be celebrating their 50th anniversary this year.

 After retiring, they moved to California in 1989. Shortly after they bought a floating home on San Francisco Bay (in the Berkeley Marina).
