Fondest / Worst memories:    

Fondest:    The all night party at SMU. Checking out McClaib's Z28. The football assemblies before the games. Lunchtime with the entire gang. I could go on and on. 

Worst:    Graduating and going to Vietnam. When I first heard that Kit Hightower had been stabbed and was in the hospital. Not mending fences with Jo Gayle.

What you've learned since graduation:    Life is short. Back when we were all together at Sunset we never ever thought this far into the future. Hell, like they say, I never expected to live past 30 and I seemed to try to make it so. Now that I'm 50ish, I live each day as if there will not be another. 

What you've been doing since graduation:    U.S. Navy / Vietnam, then 8 years of insanity, got married and had 11 more years of insanity, divorced and got sane.   Attended Oklahoma State University, graduating with an Associates in Technology. Finally I  found "GODS COUNTRY" and moved to the great Northwest. Been living in and around Spokane, WA since 1994.
