Married, with an eleven-year-old daughter, he is an honorable professor at Cooper College in Upstate South Carolina. Although his relationship with his wife Debbie is lackluster, he is totally committed to his family and find great joy in parenting their precocious daughter Hannah who is very attached to him. But those days are doomed, when Debbie askes for a trial separation with plans to move to Louisville, Kentucky, with Hannah.
