Washington Elementary in Normandy District

Retired and "Bop" to my grandkids... best job ever.

McKinley Beckner, born 2009
Lincoln Beckner, b. 2012
Ruth Helen Webb, b. 2015 (on Christmas Day!)
Zuzu Elizabeth Webb, b. 2018 (on front seat of their Jetta!)
Carter Mae Beckner, b. 2018

Worked from 1976 to 2017, in sales and then in development for UMR and Wash U, and built my own business in tax preparation and consulting, from 1994 to 2017.
Now, in retirement, I'm trying hard to give back, to make a difference; helping my kids and their families, for starters. I've been twice to Ukraine since 2022, volunteering with refugees in Slovakia (2022), and then raising funds to refurbish and then drive an ambulance from London to Ukraine (2024) to donate it to the war effort, saving lives. Hope to do it again in 2025

My parents moved us from Hanley Hills to Manchester MO in late 1969, so I finshed up high school at Parkway West. I didn't want to go, but being only 16 I sadly didn't get a say!
Basketball, marching band, choir, Boy Scouts, trying to figure out who I was (typical teenage idiocy) pretty much took me from dumb kid to college.
So glad now because I've reconnected with old friends from Hanley Hills and from Normandy days. What a great place to grow up!
