Leland Barber

About a month after graduating I reported to the Naval Academy at Annapolis. I did fairly well at Annapolis except for my Senior Year during which I became a good bridge player. I had an undistinguished Navy career from 1968 to 1978 home-ported in New London and Norfolk. 

I married in 1971. We had a daughter and a son. We moved to Appleton, WI in 1978 and I worked for a capital equipment supplier to the paper industry until 2009. I took a nice early retirement Package in April 2009, due to my wife's failing health, and the financial incentives. She died three months later. I am happily retired and remarried in Appleton. My children and their families are in Appleton and suburban Chicago.
