Welcome Wm. Mark Worthington to Senior Moments!  


Mark was born in Toronto Ontario and raised his family in Kitchener-Waterloo Ontario. Mark’s career in telecommunications from Cable TV to wireless internet and eventually satellite TV has come full circle, entering into his retirement life in Markdale, Ontario Canada. Hear Mark’s story about “retiring” from the corporate world, moving to his present home in rural Ontario. 


You will love how he and our host met in a Florida State Park campground and listen as he shares his story of love of camping and how he and his wife, Hildi are spending their retirement, and how he is using his “work skills” to help seniors in the Markdale area.  


Maybe you will become inspired to do the same! Enjoy our first Canadian guest to the show!!
