Perspective Reflections in Rhyme

I was born and raised in a small village of Angusville, in Manitoba, Canada. Upon completion of high school at Major Pratt Collegiate in Russell, Manitoba, I attended the Universities of Manitoba, Brandon University, and Ottawa University; the recipient of these degrees: B.A., B.Ed., M.Ed., and a certificate in Eastern Christian Studies. I hold an Education Administrator's Level II certificate, and a province of Manitoba Teaching Certificate. After serving in the Canadian Armed Forces for four years both in Canada and abroad, with the Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps, I was employed as a teacher/principal in the elementary and junior High grades. After graduating from the Catholic Seminary in Ottawa, I am employed as pastor of St. Mary's Ukrainian Catholic Churches in Brandon and Portage la Prairie, Manitoba. I am married to my wife Dolores. My first poetry book, "Poetry, My Obsession", was published in 2011.
