I went to MU for a year right after graduation, where I had the time of my life. I sobered up that next June. I quit going to college for a while after that opting to work instead. I got married in 1982, and a couple of years later we had our first child (Ashley), 2 years after that, we had our 2nd (April). I had been working in a factory all this time and finally decided that I should try school again. I went to Missouri Western and finally graduated with degrees in Management and Accounting. In 1997 I went back to school and picked an MBA from Benedictine College. The jury is still out on whether that was a good investment or not. I was offered and accepted a management position with my old company around 1990. I did many things for them over the years, supervisor, production superintendent, system administrator. My final job for them was Distribution Manager. I was in that position for a couple of years when the plant closed at the end of 2004. I am now the Production Manager for a graphic arts company. I'm still married to the same woman for what will be 26 years at the end of May. She's evidently completely nuts since she's put up with all my crap for all this time.

I remember many things..... Richard and I riding his dad's Dodge pickup nose first into Conger's pond and it taking 2 wreckers to pull it out. Playing cart polo with shopping carts from the old A&P at East Hills mall. I never understood how those shopping carts could withstand a 60 mph collision with a light pole and keep rolling. Countless times throwing toilet paper into trees all over the county. Pasture parties at Paul Young's, Football and coach Flint, wrestling (Coachs Hackett and Terry) and golf (Coach Grosdidier)I remember that he had a crooked finger and it was kind of tough to tell who he was pointing at sometimes. I mostly remember having a lot of good friends in this class. I pretty much lost track of them all over the years. I hope to be able to reconnect with them through this website (Thank You Terre)and at the reunion.
