As Mark Twain of Connecticut scrawled from his home in Hartford, “Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.”

Now that I have joined a group of octogenarians, we can spend hours discussing what Twain meant and trading life’s stories, past and present.

Almost 60 years ago, I married my love of life, a woman from Minnesota. Sue Ann Tibbetts Krimsky borrows from Garrison Keillor when she warns, “Age doesn’t always bring wisdom. Sometimes, Age comes alone.”

My purpose here, with a small collection of stories,  reflections, and projects, is to gratefully thank my family and dear friends who helped me along life’s path. I hope you find something of interest and perhaps even a few happy memories.

Pan Am and the World

PanAmPlane

My first and longest-running job was with Pan Am, indeed the greatest airline of its day, and 25 years filled with excitement and years of adventure.

Projects & Enterprise

entrepreneur

YankeeNets, LLC in 2000 was joyful, with plenty of home games and exciting championships for the Yankees. One big part of sport-theatrics was missing – timely music. Things have only changed slightly in the last 25 years, so we created and trademarked a venture that we believe can focus sports management's attention on producing new music for fan and player excitement.

Olympics & Events

achievement

A dozen years in Colorado with the United States Olympic Committee was a special assignment that I never regretted for a moment. I started the Olympic Marathon in 1972 in Munich as part of the Pan Am sponsorship and continued meeting Olympians, aspiring athletes, dedicated sponsors, and generous contributors for the next 30 years.
