| Bill and I celebrated our 50th
wedding anniversary last November. Our kids planned a wonderful afternoon
which included a limo ride to Red Lobster in DM. Our kids are now 41-48
years old and we have two wonderful granddaughters 23 and 19. We still
live in the same home we moved to in 1965 - only the address has changed
somewhat over the years. Retirement is fun and don't know where all
the time goes. I like to read and quilt and am involved with church
circle and attend a craft class. |

Fondest Memories of High

during my time at North. |

in football and baseball, and made friendships that continue to this
day. |
Most significant
happening in my life?
In October of 1984, while living in Southern California, I met and
married the wonderful wife I am married to today. Also significant has
been the birth of my five wonderful children. Sad time occurred a couple
of years ago with the death of my youngest son, Shawn, who died in an
auto accident two days prior to his 44th birthday. Happy times and sad
times, but all significant. |
