I have been a parishioner of St. Mary of Sorrows since 1979 and an Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharistic since 1982, and a Sacristan since 2009.  We were  a Presenting Couple in the World Wide Marriage Encounter program for ten years; presenter for the Marriage Enlightenment Program for Engaged Couples for St Mary’s and the Dioceses of Washington, DC; Assisted in starting ME Basic Circles for St. Mary’s parishioners in 1983; was a member of the Family CCD Program from 1979 through 1991; Involved in “Renew” Prayer Group since 1994; Member of Cursillo since 1983; a member of the Knights of Columbus Council 8600 since 2010 and a 4th Degree Knight since 2011.  I received a BSCE from Pacific College/UCLA 1976. Worked as a Naval Architect or Engineer providing Engineering services at nine shipyards, four Naval Architecture firms and five other clients under my own firm, J.D. Enterprises, Inc. across the Country since 1958.  I was recently elected as a member of the Board of Directors of Marian Homes, Inc. 
It is a privilege and an honor to serve as a member of the Board of Directors of Marian Homes, Inc. I hope to bring my skill set to the Board by providing Engineering and maintenance services for our facilities and working on other projects and programs where needed.  It is truly a privilege to serve as a Board member of Marian Homes, Inc.
