All About Dennis Christ...

A little bit more about Dennis Christ and his family....




Ann and Dennis Christ retired several years ago, Ann from her position as Executive Director of Central Minnesota Group Health in St. Cloud, MN and Dennis from his as President of Transportation Systems for Unisys Corporation in Blue Bell, PA. We moved to Red Lodge, MT partly to be closer to our son, Peter and his family, and to help out at Bridge Creek, the large restaurant he started in 1997. We still have our lake home in northern MN, and we have a small condo in Horseshoe Bay, TX (east of Austin in the Hill Country) when we need to get away from winter for a while.

Ann serves on the Board of our local hospital (they're building a new one), also on the Board of Luther Seminary in St. Paul, MN, and is President of the church council here in Red Lodge. I'm on the board of our local historical society and on the board of Christikon, the Lutheran backpacking camp up the Boulder River south of Big Timber, MT. We both spend considerable time at Bridge Creek helping out and enjoying the food and wine. (Who said retirement was boring?)

Older son, Eric, lives with his family, wife Maureen and girls, Kiernan, 6 and Moira, 3 in Norcross, GA. Eric is President of Patient Placement Systems, a small Internet based software firm. They enjoy traveling a lot, visiting all sorts of places around the world. Check out http://www.patientplacement.com/ for more info on his company.

Peter and his family, wife Anne, daughter Della, 9 and son Bjorn, 7 live in Red Lodge, MT. Together they own and operate Bridge Creek Backcountry Kitchen and Wine Bar. Check out http://www.eatfooddrinkwine.com/ for more info on the restaurant.
