Some Personal Stuff

My photo
Deacon Dana
The Villages, Florida, United States
I'm a permanent deacon of the Roman Catholic Church, incardinated in the Diocese of Fall River, Massachusetts, but now living and ministering in the Diocese of Orlando, Florida. I'm also a retired naval aviator, educator, and business consultant. Born in Bridgeport, CT, I was brought up in Larchmont, NY, and attended Archbishop Stepinac High School in White Plains, NY, graduating in 1962. I spent a year at Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service, but then managed to get an appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy, from which I graduated in 1967. The Navy taught me to fly and sent me to graduate school. Afterwards I taught computer science at Annapolis for several years. I did lots of other strange things in the years that followed. Politically -- perhaps more accurately, philosophically -- I'm a Russell Kirk conservative in most things. More importantly, though, I am husband of the beautiful Diane, the father of four, and grandfather of nine.
