My name is Richard Young.  I have a BSW from West Virginia University, a Masters in Counseling from Liberty University, and a Masters in Social Work from Limestone University. 

I have two boys and three grandchildren and enjoy football.  I have been married for almost thirty years and my wife tells me they have been happy years.  I enjoy traveling and have trouble sitting still (except for watching football, but then I say bad words!).  My co-worker just told me that I would be held hostage if I ever tried to leave.
