Chaka Khan Dance With Me, Isley Brothers I Will Always Come Back To You, Parliment Funkadelics, Flashlight and Make My Funk the PFunk, Bootsy Collins If I Can't Get Your Love, MAZE, Disco Dazz, Need I Say More!
Were you in any SHHS clubs or on any SHHS sports teams?
Volley Ball, Tiger Mascott (Until My Mom Found Out I Had To Wear the Leotard and Fishnet Stockings) LOL, Drama Club, Medical Career Club, Announcements Club, Bowling Club, Senior Class Favorite.
Let me suck up! All of my teachers were my favorite but, let me mention Mr Charlie McCoy. I have the pleasure of working with him now and he is still a dedicated science teacher and look as young as he did in the 70's. I also loved Ms Turner and Nurse Armstrong.
What, if anything, would you pass on to the future Tigers, and those getting ready to begin their lives after SHHS?
Never let anyone (including family members) tell you that you can not do something. Delete I can't from your vocabulary. If someone closes a door in your face, knock on another, if the next door is closed, continue knocking, if one still does not open, knock the next damn door down! Be persistant persuing your dreams!
