Comments:

Moved to Indonesia from Borger after 9th grade, where I finished high school. Attended college back in the U.S., studied biology in undergrad, considered and started dentistry but did not feel it was my calling, moved to Dallas where I have been for the last 25 years. I'm currently teaching tennis at one of the largest clubs in Dallas, still play and enjoy the sport, and have four kids who are competitive players, one finishing Rhodes College in a month or so.
What's your favorite memory of BHS?

I left after 9th grade, but being on the tennis team was definitely the highlight of my freshman year. I arrived in Borger from Colombia in 7th grade, spoke no English, but found everyone welcoming and kind. I have great memories of Sandra Judd--forgive me, I don't recall her married name right now--as well as my best friend at the time, Tom Grimmer. I remember many others with great fondness, and would love to hear from anyone who remembers this Colombian from long ago.

Least favorite?

Leaving Borger....

Who did you hang out with in High School?

Mostly tennis team people. Brad Renick, jimmy Abel, etc... As well as those mentioned above.

I remember you! You moved to Borger the same year I left. I had a huge crush on you. You were so different than anyone I had ever been around.

So great to hear from you, Tom! You look like you're still in running shape to go out there and do a couple of 660s, like we used to in middle school...
