Hospitals and healthcare hold personal significance for JC. He recalls the "difficult yet wonderful memories from the first year of life for our twins, who were born prematurely. We had incredible, dedicated, professional care from the hospital staff during the long stay and many follow-up visits." Today, his two seven year-olds fill the home with laughter.
A fan of music, JC enjoys writing, playing and listening to new tunes. His family enjoys beach vacations along the Massachusetts shore or at more distant tropical locales. |
