I'm a Catholic "revert" who, after 25 years of not practicing and learning about other faiths, discovered the fullness of truth and beauty that is right here in our own beautiful Holy Mother Catholic church!
I'm second generation American of Italian immigrants and third generation of Irish Immigrants, born and raised in northern New Jersey. A typical rebellious kid growing up in a lower-middle class family but wasn't raised in a religious home. My only experience with church was wnen I visited for the weekend with my Italian Grandmother who took me to mass every Sunday with her. I joined the Navy in 1984 and retired in 2004 after 20 years of proud service that took me halfway around the world. I'm happily married to the most beautiful woman in the world whose Love of God is her most beautiful attribute. Proud father of 5 beautiful daughters and 11 beautiful grandchildren!
