Amber and I moved to Galesburg, IL in 1990 where I became The minister at Central Congregational Church, a wonderful historic church in the heart of town.  Many of you are aware of the difficulty I experienced in Brookfield, and I learned that it was not possible at that time for me to bounce back.  In 1992 I decided to leave active ministry and enter the corporate world.  I became an agent for Country Companies Insurance (Farm Bureau) for the next 5 years and enjoyed it very much.  Many of my clients were farmers as Galesburg is a rich agricultural area.  Amber, in the meantime, taught piano and organ, and accompanied the choirs at Knox College, where our son, Rob was enrolled as a voice major.  He graduated from Knox in 1995 and is a wonderful singer.  Professionally, he entered the newspaper industry and is currently the regional editor for papers in Bay City, Saginaw, and Midland, MI where he and his wife, Claire are raising our 4 delightful grandsons:  Owen - 9, August - 7, Asher - 5, and Ellis - 3.  In 1997 I was asked by Gary Smith, President/CEO of NAEIR (National Association for the Exchange of Industrial Resources) to become their Director of Human Resources, which I did for 15 years, retiring last July, six months before my 70th birthday.  You might want to Google www.naeir.org - it's a pretty neat nonprofit organization.  This week Amber and I will celebrate our 49th wedding anniversary.  We still live in the beautiful 1920 expanded bungalow we bought in 1990.  There are photos on my Face Book.  (Robert B. Clark). We are actively involved in First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) where Amber is the organist and I play tenor sax and flute with their excellent praise band,  "The Quest."  For a number of years I have taught classes in Supervision, HR Management, and Labor Relations at Carl Sandburg College here in Galesburg, which I will continue to do this fall.  I also lead a 16-piece Swing Era dance band called The Rootabaga Jammers, which I front with my clarinet, much like Benny Goodman did back in the day.  It is great fun and quite a hit around these parts.  The band is actually an "activity" of Carl Sandburg College and is made up of community musicians who all volunteer their talents - including me.  Carl Sandburg was a native of Galesburg, and the band name is in reference to a rootabaga he mentioned in one of his poems.  I find it interesting that I eventually wound up doing what my closest boyhood buddy, Jack Dresdow did professionally.  It has been a rewarding career, and Galesburg has been a great place to live.  Amber and I feel richly blessed by God, and we seek every day to live out the THANK YOU.  Bob
