Comments:

I cannot believe how fast the time has gone since graduation. I look through the names and many still bring a smile to my face. I even went to the shelf and dusted off the year book to show my kids what we all looked like. They had quite the laugh at our expense! I truly enjoyed the last reunion. It was nice seeing some of my oldest and dearest friends from grade school, Jeff Windus and Jay Boldt are among some that I have known what seems like forever. Jeff has even met my children. They say he looks the same - is that good or bad!!
Family life is good and I enjoy being a wife and mother. We have done some traveling out West and our most recent trip was touring the East coast. Mitch loves football, skiing and golf. Only one broken bone in all this time. He tolerates school, but does not quite see the big picture on the need to do well. Mom, how much do you really need to know to be a demolition expert? McKenzie loves school. She is on tennis team, however, her true love is music. She loves band, and is active in the pep band, jazz band and marching.
As a family we enjoy our "shack" in Door County, which allows us to do lots of biking and hiking. We do fish on occasion, but our new found love is kayaking. Bob and I pretty much take a back seat to the kids - which we don't mind. We enjoy watching them and cheering them on. I never thought having kids could be this much fun....

School Story:

I found my ticket that I got with Lenore DeSouto for riding our mopeds on the sidewalk. I can still see us in court with our dads, all dressed up, pleading our case with the judge!

Frauline Staulzer - need I say more.

Mr Merza - Lenore and I were always late to his class - he used to call us frick and frack

working at the Public Library for 85 cents and hour -man I thought I was rich.

my co-workers Ann Reindle, Ann Reimer, Gail Martin and Jeff Windus-I can't count how many hours I spent "reading" shelves in the childrens library trying not to talk!!


sitting by my locker discussing life with Mike French

Smashing into the back of John Peter's parents car with their new mopeds.

Getting my dads station wagon stuck in the mud and having a farmer pull us out. Lenore was involved in that one too!!

The dances after the basketball games - high schools don't do that anymore.

Eating nutty bars in band and being yelled at by Mr Schneider -

finding the perfect prom dress and it was on sale!!
