They met in Hospice Grief Support counseling and were married in 2005 at Hospice of Dayton (a real first for Hospice!).
Fred is a 69 year old retired Air Force officer (combat experienced fighter pilot and program manager) whose 33 year marriage to a pediatric RN resulted in a son and a daughter (one adopted and one natural) who are now married with children of their own. He now makes his living as a consultant and trainer in project management and leads a Rotary project to establish a sanctuary for AIDS orphans rescued from Africa’s most dangerous slum. He has a BA in mathematics and an MS in system management.
Jeri is a 57 year old pediatric RN whose 27 year marriage to an Air Force chaplain resulted in two sons, both now married. The oldest is in his final year of medical school and the youngest is an engineer. She works part time as a home health care nurse, serving medically challenged children who would otherwise be hospitalized. She is active with Fred in the Africa project as she shares a passion with Fred in helping vulnerable children. A major focus of her life since marrying Fred has been continuing to parent her two sons and help Fred dote on his grandkids.view less
