Maryland Heights Local Is a National Spokesman for Aspergers Disorder - Maryland Heights, MO Patch

Maryland Heights Local Is a National Spokesman for Aspergers Disorder - Maryland Heights, MO Patch: Life has never been easy for Likens. He was told at age 20 he had Aspergers and likely would never get a job, have friends or find happiness.

All of this is not so. He has the job, some friends and appears to be content with his life.

When he’s not working, he’s involved with cross country motor sports. He serves as clerk of the course at race events and is the flagman at the finish line of those races. He’s attended every Indy 500 (where he grew up) since 1997 and his goal is to be the official flag waver at the finish line of this epic event some day.
