Born in Virginia, raised in Maryland; survivor of an alcoholic  family; graduated High School and Union Carpenters Apprenticeship; a student of Algebra, a student of Life, a  brown belt Samurai Chess Player; gave up clarinet in 2nd grade because he was too young to understand;  gave up French class 5 years later because he could not speak the language; turned down Ms. Maria Blautzig for the Sadie Hawkins Dance because she had turned  down his request earlier in the school year; walked out of typing class on day one, hell HOUR one, because he could not handle the stress of it;  walked out of Oklahoma State University because he really needed help at that point and did not know how to ask for it, so ‘tear it all down and blow it up’ seemed to be the only way to find any; experienced the deepest loneliness of his entire life to date out on that highway, with no direction anywhere.  He has worked as a ditch digger, a grass cutter, a TV Guide door to door salesman; he has been a farm worker, carpenters’ helper, apprentice, a Journeyman carpenter in Local 132, a Home Improvement contractor and a Facilities Maintenance Engineer.  He has passed up more opportunities than cars on a freight train; he has hitchhiked, hobo’ed and walked across tens of thousands of miles of America's roadways, and a few in Canada, for good measure.

By virtue of  a chance encounter one snowy January night in 1993, when he met and eventually married the revolutionary communist, aspiring novelist, multi instrumentalist soprano and as yet unheralded expert at fitting leftovers into the refrigerator, the  beguiling, and sumptuous Ms. Juliana; this union subsequently created the talented, smart, bubbly, and eye-catching Ms. Sophia, she of the musical pipes.
Mr Higgins first picked up the guitar at age 23, the harmonica at 57, and wrote his first book at age 5, or 6. It shall remain forever unpublished, as the only handwritten master of it is lost to the dustbin of history.

Dave Mortach is a financial specialist in Ohio who focuses on the success of his customers' retirements. He lives in Avon and is known for his ability to prioritize his clients' needs.

After twenty years of working with various companies, Dave decided to establish his own financial firm. His main objective was to help people build their retirement funds. He was able to accomplish this through his ability to educate his clients and provide them with the necessary tools and resources to make informed decisions.

As a child, Dave was raised in North Olmsted, Ohio, where his father was a firefighter. His strong work ethic and loyalty to his family were instilled in him throughout his life. Even though he started his career in the financial sector during a turbulent period for the stock market, none of his clients lost money.

Although Andrew Lombara was originally from Boston, he now calls New York State home. Despite his retirement, he still enjoys playing sports and making life an exciting adventure. He is a die-hard fan of the various teams in his home town, such as the Red Sox, the Celtics, the Patriots, and the Bruins. Because of his retirement, he has more free time to spend with family and friends.

Even when he was young, Andrew Lombara was passionate about playing sports. Even though he wasn't interested in any particular sport, he was always involved in athletics. During his high school years, he played football.

When he was offered the opportunity to work on Wall Street, Andrew was immediately attracted to the exciting atmosphere and the thrill of the trading floor. He quickly became a prominent figure in the bond trading industry. Like his football career, he quickly developed a passion for this type of financial activity.

Before his retirement, Andrew was working as the head of government bond trading for HSBC Bank USA. Before joining the company, he worked for Merrill Lynch. During his time at Merrill Lynch, he was able to help the firm become one of the top strips dealers in the industry.


Before he was hired by Merrill Lynch, Andrew was a head trader at the zero-coupon bond desk of a financial firm known as the Prudential Securities. Due to his passion for financial activity, he was able to take advantage of the many opportunities that he had throughout his life.


Andrew Lombara says that traveling has left an impression on his mind, and he would recommend people try it at least once. Despite having traveled all around the world, he still has many destinations that he would like to visit. He believes that seeing the world through another person's perspective can help one open their minds to new ideas.


Being active is also a priority for Andrew Lombara. He enjoys working out and running, and he often takes his family on trips to the beach.
