Sam (KIKO) Clinkenbeard

WORKING AT UNIVERSAL ENGRAVING FOR 20 YEARS(SINCE HIGH SCHOOL), BOATING AT THE OZARKS, TRAVELING OVERSEAS. OUR DAUGHTER ALEXIS HAS BEEN PLAYING AAU BASKETBALL FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND THIS KEEPS US VERY BUSY TRAVELING ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. HER TEAM HAS BEEN IN THE TOP 10 IN THE NATION FOR THE LAST 5 YEARS. THIS YEAR THEY TOOK FOURTH PLACE IN THE NATIONAL TOURNAMENT. OUR OTHER DAUGHTER McKENNA IS THREE YRS. OLD AND IS VERY SMART WHICH KEEPS US ON OUR TOES. SHE THINKS SHE CAN DO ANYTHING INCLUDING ALL OF THE OLYMPIC SPORTS, DRIVING MOTORCYCLES AND PAINTING OUR HOUSE.

I COULDN'T WAIT TO GET OUT OF SCHOOL, BUT IT DIDN'T TAKE LONG TO REALIZE THAT I WOULD BE LOSING CONTACT WITH A LOT OF FRIENDS. IT WILL BE GREAT TO SEE EVERYONE. I REMEMBER A TOGA PARTY THAT DIDDLE AND I HAD AT MY PARENTS HOUSE. WE HAD A DJ AND HAD TO MOVE THE POOL TABLE OUTSIDE WITH SPOTLIGHTS IN THE TREES SO PEOPLE COULD PLAY. THERE WERE A LOT OF CREATIVE TOGAS ESPECIALLY THE GIRLS. AFTER A FEW HUNDRED PEOPLE AND SIX OR SEVEN KEGS MY PARENTS BASEMENT AND YARD WAS DESTROYED. WHAT A GREAT TIME!!!
