Don Fiedler

Hi everyone.  There have been a lot of changes in my life over 40 years, and I am sure for you also.  The highlights of my 4 decades include my marriage to a wonderful girl from Nebraska named Mary in November, 1980.  A few years later came our 1st daughter, Stephanie in 1985, our son Benjamin in 1987, daughter #2 in 1991, and daughter #3 in 1992.
I have worked at quite a few different jobs before finally settling in as a clerk for the US Postal Service in May, 1990, where I still am today.
