What have you been doing for the past 50 years?: After leaving high school, I played the college roll, of partying, and not studying. I was a late bloomer. I finally bit the bullet in 1999 and completed a BS- degree in business management. From 1964-1968, I traveled the world in the NAVY. The last couple years were spent around Vietnam, on the USS Forresyt Royal-DD-872. I spent 35-years working as a copier repair technician. Five years ago I began working on CPM medical equipment repairing, calibrating, and supervising this department. I work at a bench now instead of driving 60-thousand miles a year. I get to help many patients who are older than me, and it is a good feeling to give back a little. I love my wife Diane (happily married for 37-years), my son B.J. (short for blair robert-28), and my daughter terri ellen-31), and my two grand daughters-emily and Mckenna.

What have you been doing for the past 50 years?: I retired after 30 years of teaching and 38 years of marriage. Jim said I couldn't retire from that. Thought it was a good idea. In an effort to keep up with my 4 athletic brothers, I took up golfing years ago. I work constantly at the game and am proud to say I can beat them today. ( sometimes!!! and from those wimpy women's tees). I do travel a lot -especially to North Carolina - where my 3 daughters live. I am involved with March of Dimes and Habitat for Humanity. The workers were amazed when they saw that I could pound in nails. I guess they knew nothing about my "tomboyish" childhood days. (You can ask "cuz" Tom McCarthy about that.) I have a diet and exercise routine and use that hair coloring stuff in an effort to keep up with those younger people. It is fun trying. I love to dance, sing out loud and act wild and crazy at times. It only takes 2 drinks - my limit! Well, I've got to run. We are on our way to Augusta for the Masters. Am looking forward to seeing you all at the reunion. Another chance for me to act wild and crazy.
Comments: Thanks to the committee for all their hard work. Also, where are the rest of our classmates. Come on, you know who you are. Fill us in, please!!!!
