Craig Hebert

Ok, well.... Here goes... I was married to Phyllis Doucet Hebert for 18 years, and we had two children together. We divorced in 2001. I married my current wife, Stacey in 2007. I went into the Navy in December 1985 and stayed on 'Active Duty" for 13 months for boot camp and two additional electronics schools. I started working at the Bayou Choctaw Strategic Petroleum Reserve in March of 1986, and am still there in the capacity of security shift lieutenant. I spend a lot of time working, laying out by the pool, fishing, hunting, and spending time with my granddaughter Madeline. She's my heart, I can tell you.... I keep in touch with only two people I graduated with. Robin Tregle and Mickey Dugas. I work on the same facility as Mickey, so maybe that doesn't really count. You decide :-) I've lost much of my hair, but I'm still the "happy-go-lucky guy I always was. I do regret my silly year book quote, but hey, I was just a crazy kid at the time with no thoughts for the future. I don't imagine many people read the quotes much anyways.... LOL I enjoy playing billiards, though I seldom ever get to play since my favorite haunt closed down in 2005 (Drusilla Daiquiris). Incidentally, that is also where I first met my current wife, Stacey. She and I travel quite a bit, going on cruises, to the mountains, and beaches. I don't dance very much like I used to, but I still LOVE my 80s music with a passion. I have hundreds of CDs like Prince, The Time, Dazz Band, Michael Jackson, Janet, Cameo, Gap Band, and plenty more. I actually listen to many styles and genres of music which include Pop, Soul, Classic Rock, Hard Rock, Classical, Latin, Country, Rock, and R&B. I've always been an open book, and that has not changed. I would like anyone who wishes to talk to me to call me. I was really sorry to see school end, because I knew I'd seldom if ever see many of my dear friends.

Well, I started at the "Headstart" across the street from Plaquemine Elementary School with Mrs. Lucille. I did a three-year stretch at Plaquemine Elementary. My absolutely WORST teacher of my life was Miss Marix! God, how I hated her. She was SOOOOOO mean to me! Anyway, I ambled over to E.J.Gay for a couple years that I can hardly remember. I do recall playing marbles a lot. At Iberville Middle, I started to grow up a bit. I started going to the Plaquemine Youth Center dances and learned to dance! Now THAT was fun! I had several crushes during that time, and they each now know it... LOL Plaquemine Jr. High was really cool! They had the BEST food for lunch, and I met my absolutely favorite teacher of all, Miss Simone Moore. She made me want to learn English more than any teacher ever did, and she was also very personable. She's gone now, but I made it a special purpose in life to let her know how she changed my life for the better. I attribute my English grammar skills and love of reading to her. She is missed very much. When I arrived at Plaquemine High, Miss Margaret Farr was waiting for me! Boy, could that lady ever throw some mean looks.... I think my overly-enthusiastic personality worked on her last nerve sometimes. I made it a habit of sitting in the front center row each morning and smiling all the time. I also told her, "Good morning, Miss Farr" each morning, and of course she HAD to say, "Good morning, Craig" to me. It always came out so strained... As though it killed her to wish me a good day... LOL Oh, those were the days... Miss Rosamond Nicolosi was also one of my favorite teacher in high school. I think she was favored by many students because of her understanding of our young lives in transition. I have some really good memories of General Cooperative Education and the trips we took. I made State Parliamentarian that year, the only person at PHS to garner a state office. I also met lots of really cool people too. I have, and always be a "People Person". My biggest regret is that I don't see all of those terrific people I went to school with. I'd love to hear from you guys! Ciao :-)
