I Would Describe Myself As

I'm here seeking genuine and sincere connections. Having been through immense emotional pain from deceit and betrayal in the past, I still have some reluctancy in staring a relationship of any kind. There were many who professed to be my support, expressing their commitment as they sought my aid. Yet when I turned to them for emotional or practical assistance, they disappeared, intentionally withdrawing their pledged support. While this has not dampened my love for humanity or my fervent devotion to my Savior, it has made me cautious and more selective about who I let into my life.

I understand the need for authenticity in emotions and am ready to offer my love, support, and help to that special someone in my life. I aim to facilitate not only the fulfillment of my partner's goals but also to foster a balanced relationship where both our needs are equally considered.

As a devoted lifelong member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, I had the divine privilege to serve the wonderful people in the mission in Raleigh, North Carolina, in 1987-88. My service didn't end there, as I had to cut short my mission to donate a kidney to my 33-year-old sister, who was suffering from total renal failure after fulfilling her dream of childbirth. Unfortunately, she passed away six weeks post-transplant, leaving a deep emotional scar on those fortunate enough to have known her. A beacon of Christ's light, she is still fondly remembered in Vernal, Utah. Her compassion, love, and Christ-like charity continue to inspire me every day, shaping me into a man she'd be proud of. My aim is to never disappoint her, just as I strive never to let down my Savior.

I firmly believe in not judging others and hope my future partner shares this principle. Judgment hinders our capacity to extend true charity and service. I am dedicated to assisting others in any way I can.

My faith in the Church of Jesus Christ is unwavering. I respect and acknowledge everyone's spiritual journey, aware that we each have unique paths and methods to understand and live by Christ's teachings.

I'm seeking a partner who relishes new experiences in various domains, such as art, culinary arts, camping, travel, boating, scuba diving, and more. I have a deep love for nature and am an avid outdoorsman, with a particular penchant for fishing.

A master photographer with several degrees, I also share my knowledge about fine arts and printing. Leveraging my 24 years of business consulting experience, I've helped ambitious individuals start businesses and secure necessary capital.

Following a very painful divorce after 31 years of marriage in where she had an affair and then married him one month after our divorce was final, I find that I am somewhat reluctant to begin another relationship. But I know I have so much love, joy, and life still to share with the right person.

I love and adore my family and their mates. I am a proud dad of five talented, secure adults.

I have small grands. I plan to build a long and meaningful relationship with each one of them (which requires spoiling them rotten with many loud and obnoxious toys every opportunity I get)!

I seek a partner who values hard work, cherishes life, enjoys frequent laughter, and offers unconditional love. Above all, someone who understands that the most important person besides their partner is Jesus Christ. Ideally, they would resonate with or be eager to learn the phrase "The Glory of God is intelligence."

Why not take a chance and connect? We can at least start a journey of friendship and see where it leads us.
