Date men from United States / Arizona / San Carlos, 71 year old

Date someone special from San Carlos, United States. On seperate occasions, three different young ladies told me "I hope I meet a man like you someday".
Now I would like to meet someone to spend the rest of my time with.
I enjoy doing a lot of things but in my life I have found that just being with that certain person is what makes me the happiest, no matter what we are doing. People are what really matter in life.
I started my life down on the farm in Claremore, OK. I am the third of 8 children all within 10 years of age. Between the age of 4-6, I rode pigs, I rode calves, and I rode a small pony. I guess I thought I was going to be a cowboy. But that was not to be as my mother died from childbirth when I was 6 and everything changed. I ended up in a home for children in Fort Smith, AR where my youngest brother is now the Fire Chief.
At the ripe old age of 18 I joined the Navy to sail the ocean blue. And that I did, and retired from the Navy as Master Chief after 19 years 1 month so I could spent some time with my son before he went off to college and law school. And I remodled my house by building a 22' x 16' family room with fireplace, pool table, and bar and later added an old style juke box. Guess it's time to get back to work so I took a job in air conditioning & refrigeration for 7 years. I then went back to work for the Navy Department writing maintenance documents for various weapons systems for the fleet.
I retired early due to my wife's illness as I was not willing to let someone else care for her. I wanted to do everything I could to make every day as safe and happy as possible. I took her to lunch 6 out of 7 days every week and everywhere else I went. I am proud to say that I, along with some great young friends of ours were able to do that for 11 years.
