He also drove school bus for Whitehall Township's Camp Whitehall summer program.
In June of 2003, he retired from PPL Electric Utilities Corporation, in Allentown, Pennsylvania, following 37 years of service, as a designer in electrical drafting.
He WON 11 National Awards from the National Safety Council's Public Utilities Division, in their Annual SAFETY POSTER CONTEST, representing PPL Electric Utilities Corporation.
He also served as the Chairperson of the PPL Electric Utilities Corporation's SAFETY and HEALTH Committee, at their General Office Complex in Allentown, Pennsylvania, which consisted of 66 floors including a 23 story tower.
One common thread throughout the book is SAFETY, which is absolutely relative to, "SCHOOL BUS WISDOM."
Unfortunately he required surgery in September of 2007, to repair a detached retina in his left eye. During the four month period of recuperation, he could not drive a school bus due to the loss of some vision in his left eye. In great anticipation of getting behind the wheel of a school bus once again, he decided to write this book, while his eye was healing.
Following three additional eye surgeries, to correct his eyesight, disturbing news of reality was revealed to him, that his vision would never improve enough to drive a school bus every again.
Therefore his enjoyment of being a school bus driver, instantly became history and it became very difficult for him to continue writing to complete this book.
This book project became a brand new and exciting and fun filled learning experience for him and he hopes you enjoy it, and find it useful throughout your driving or riding on a school bus.ver menos
