Bio     Met my wife Tatiana DeFalco at the Univ of Tulsa in 1970. We were officially married in 1971. After another 6 years I finally graduated and we moved on to Indiana Univ in Bloomington. After grad school, I taught and ran the analytical geochemistry lab at IU for 17 years. There we ran into the russian comunity and converted to Orthodox Christianity. After 20 years in Indiana (and 6 children) we returned to our home town of Tulsa (Owasso) to serve St James Russian Orthodox Church where I am priest. If I had seen that coming I would have paid more attention in Mr Manwarren's Russian class in 8th and 9th grade at Nowlin. Possible future plans are to help out the St Louis priest by occasionally serving the mission in Kansas City (www.hpoc.org). With more frequent visits, maybe I will finally run into someone I know there (and/or realize it). To pay the bills, I have been at Delphi Catalyst since 1997 leading analytical development. Tatiana is Fabric and Crafts Manager at the local WalMart. Started having kids in 1980. Current status: Mary, MS from Ohio State, works at Caterpillar in Illinois Moses, CS major, Mazzios Pizza cook Galina, pre-nursing major, Walmart cashier
