The Guys

"There's a force in the Universe that makes things happen. And all you have to do is get in touch with it, stop thinking, let things happen and be the ball. May, may, make your future, Danny. Be the Groomsman!" --Chevy Chase CADDYSHACK
This is my turn to write a brief "Bio" of everyone in my small, but proud party. I'm not as eloquent with words as Kristen, but I'll try my best.
Each one of these guys is a great friend and also could be a good starting line up for any D-II school.
So here it goes!

JAY STARNES
BEST MAN
Childhood Friend

Jay Starnes is a life long friend of mine... a second brother.
Since Kindergarden we've kept in touch, stayed close friends, and tried to stay out of trouble.
He is the vice principal at the same school in which we used to run the halls. He is currently completing an administrative degree in Education.
Jay is married to Ashley and has two children, Taber and Emma. You can't miss him in the wedding party, he's the big dude!
BILL "TRUMPY" TRUMP
GROOMSMEN
College Friend

My "BIG"

Trumpy was the first person I met when I started classes at Lycoming College.
We met during a basketball recruiting visit. Trump was the man responsible for showing me around.(SCARY!)
Bill teaches Spanish at Sayre High School in Sayre PA. ¡Si`!
He resides in Corning, NY with his girlfirend Nicola and many cats.

BILL "FISHTRAP" LOCKHART
GROOMSMEN
College Friend

Fishtrap, The Young Bachelor!

Always ready for a party, he constantly reminds me of how my tolerance for alcohol has steadily declined since college.
Bill lives in Connecticut and is living the NYC life. He recently started a new job with ABB. His title is to complicated for me to explain.

JEFF BENNETT
GROOMSMEN
College Friend

"Big Poppa"

Bennett was my roomate in Williamsport for three years, he was also my personal accountant. It was with Jeff that I learned the intricate world of NASCAR and WWF. Oh yea... and Thursday Night's at Heavenly Pasteria. (I'm still full!)
Jeff is a Senior Accountant at Parente in Williamsport. He and his wife, Lisa, are parents of a baby girl, Paige.

JOHN FAHRENBACH
GROOMSMEN
Mike's Cousin and Friend

The man who taught me how to play the game!

John is more than a cousin, he is a close friend! Growing up, I followed him around just about everywhere. We played just about every game: Basketball, Soccer, Baseball, Football, PlayStation. You name it, we played it!
John has just finished his first full semester at Penn State and is majoring in Elementary Education. He resides in Lake Ariel with his wife Sue and their two daughters, Dianna and Sydney.

SHAWN SAMSON
GROOMSMEN
Mike's Brother

Now it's your turn Shawn!

I'm surprised that he stills speaks to me after all the years I spend torturing and bugging the crap out of him. But that's what brother's are for .... right? All the (many) times I asked him for help, he never once said no. (Thanks!)
(Shawn, just smile every once and a while, will ya!)
Shawn is a ...let me get this title right... an ASE certified technican and works in Honesdale at an Auto Body repair shop. He also runs his own business on the side.
Shawn recently bought his first home and has reportably been seen outside of a garage in the town of Lake Ariel.

SCOTT MCDONALD
GROOMSMEN
Kristen's Brother

"The Philosopher"

Scott's always thinking.... Since the three years plus that I have dated Kristen, I have gotten to hang with her brother Scott and find out more about him each time. He is not just some Cowboy sitting around eating pudding! (Now that we cleared that up.)
Scott has been on the move the past few years, from San Fransisco to teaching abroad in Japan as a Japanse/English teacher ('JET').
Now that he's back in the States he is furthering his education. He recently left Philadelphia, where he was a Research Associate at U Penn, and moved to Richmond, VA where he is in the Psychology Masters program at Virginia Commonwealth University.
Actually ... I think Scott is the true 'Bachelor'.
