As well as teaching, giving piano lessons, and raising two sons, he wrote. After retiring to Wellington, Florida, he started to write more and compose. He composed the music for the Cottage Theater Players production of Risen. He also performed his own Rhapsody for Piano and Orchestra for the Palm Beach Music Teachers Association which was warmly received. For the past ten years, he has resided in Miami Beach, Florida where he continues to write.
