Irwin Louisville, Ky |
Got a BA at Vanderbilt in 60, then dropped out of Vandy law school
(hated the law, to my shock)....served in Army Intelligence for 39
months, much of it in Japan....was a sales rep for Corning Glass for
five years, during which time I was transferred to Charlotte.
Bought into a young office supply/card/gift/book retail operation in
1969, and helped run it for 23 years. Had 10 stores at our peak, but
big box retailers (principally Office Depot) and high occupancy
costs killed us. Closed the last store in 1992.
Stumbled around for three years, and then decided to pursue a career
in church business administration. Brief seminary study over two
years and a thesis got me FCBA certification....and am now working
in my third church-related administrative position (this one as
District Administrator for a five-state district of the Unitarian
Universalist Association of Congregations). Have now been here 5
years and love it.
Was ordained in 1998 to a ministry of
administration, and preach occasionally. Serve as treasurer
of a small Baptist association, and have been involved
extensively in homeless issues in this area, principally
with the Crisis and Shelter Council of United Way of Central
Carolinas.
Married Donna in 1984. She (wonderful, dear, patient soul)
and I have a great son, now 23 and a 2010 grad of Virginia
Tech, with degrees in Economics and Psychology. He is
working for Bank of America, and looking for a better job.
Donna has worked for 27 years for a local division of
International Paper. I have three other children, all
married, each with children....all of whom are incredibly
adorable.

After graduation I worked at Peaslee-Gaulbert Corp. and Decca
Records here in Louisville. I married my high school sweetheart, Norman (
Eastern '53) on Feb 8, 1958. I became at stay at home mom in 1962. We have two
sons, Marc-43 and Kent-39. Both work with their father in their insurance and
real estate businesses. We also have three step grandchildren.
We've
lived in Prospect for 34 years and also have homes in Marco Island, Florida and
Mt. Air N. C. I love to play golf and travel. We always have a project the
latest developing a luxury condo - The Regency at Seminary Woods- in Louisville
on U.S. 42.
I've enjoyed reading about my classmates. Thanks committee
for a job well done.
