    Mark Saltalamachia is affectionately known as “Salty”. In his younger days the nickname was short for his sir name more than his attitude. With his recent celebration of his 65 birthday, and his adoption of his role as a happy curmudgeon it may be a 50/50 split.
    Salty is a lifelong educator and coach. He loves spending quality time with his wife, grandkids and dogs. Since retirement he has been enjoying cooking, hunting, fishing, casino sports and working on his homestead.
