About my family:
I was married to Mary Elizabeth (O'Brien) Disney and we had one son Charles Roy "Charlie" Disney. Both mother and son passed away in an auto accident in 1972. This was one of the saddest times in my life, in addition to the loss of my son Cristian and of course, my parents and many other close members of my family and friends!
In 1999 I adopted Cristian Petrea when he was five years of age after both of his parents passed away. He became Cristian Petrea Disney. He was an outstanding aerial artist as were his parents with the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus for several years! Quite sadly, Cristian suffered from cardiomegaly and he passed away on May 10, 2018 at age 24. I accompanied Cristian back to Romania in his final days as he desired to be next to his mom and dad once he would pass from this life.
I am a co-founder of LodeStar Pictures, a private feature film financing enterprise that was long located in Hollywood, California. I published MovieView Magazine, long associated with Boxoffice Magazine. Also, I was the CEO of Central Cinema Company operating numerous theatres in the Midwest.
The most wonderful time in my life is when I am spending time with family and friends and being active in my Roman Catholic Church. It is no stretch to say how much I love God and all that He has Created. I have always enjoyed the companionship with many domestic dogs and cats. "I never met a dog I didn't like!" I am an active advocate for animals in Africa and India, particularly those in the Pantho leo species!
"The greatest thing I can do is to reach out and help others! Life is a blessing and all too short and I personally believe that I must do things to encourage and love everyone. My life has been such a gift to me and I do know and believe that God has a Great Plan for each and every life. I shall add more to this profile as time allows. And one more thing my Uncle Walt Disney always said to me: "Always remember who you are!"
