Information about me:
Graduated 1979 BA Economics, University of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois. Married in August of 1983 to Michelle Burns of Dexter, Michigan. Now living in northern Chicago suburb, family of 3 boys: Jeff (oldest, 16 as of the date of this entry - July 2001), Eric (13 years old) and Alex (8 years old).
Currently traveling a lot for new startup medical monitoring business but trying to spend as much time as possible with family.
My mother, Barbara Scott Taylor Philpott, still lives in Tiskilwa, widowed for a second time with the passing of her second husband, Clarence 'Shike' Philpott, long time Tiskilwa resident.
Pastimes (on the rare occasions that there is time to 'pass') include bicycling, reading fiction, and doing fun things like traveling to water parks, listening to music and doing little chores around the house with my wife and children.
As to my siblings, all Tiskilwa High alums: older brother, Jeff, lives in Rockville, Maryland; older brother, John, living in Urbana, Illinois; sister Cathy died in a car accident approximately six years, ago.
Please, if you are ever in the area of my home, do not hesitate to call without prior notice and stop in for a hello. The only credential you need is that you are a Tiskilwa High alum.
