I am looking for Terry Glomb. If anyone knows where she is, please call me. Thanks.

Terry's formal name was Terril Regina Glomb.

School Story:

Ms. Lois Edna Wood was my English teacher my senior year. Some of you may recall that that was a very difficult year for me. Among other things, I punched out the Principal when he intervened in a fight I was having with Ron Davidson.

Anyway, that year I plagiarized a paper. Ms. Wood figured out that I had done so, but she saw a bright future for me, she believed in me, and she worked with me so I could go on. She inspired me, and once out of high school I went on to do extremely well academically.

I have many times tried to find her to thank her, and finally located her through the Duke University alumni assosciation. But by then she had passed away.

This is to thank her and acknowledge that she believed in me at a time when few others did.

Walt was a good friend in high school, always ready with a joke. Then I saw him again at the PAHS reunion in 2000 and we had a long talk, catching up on more than forty years of living. I'm shocked and sad to know he's gone and that this happened in November 2014. Sending belated blessings to his family.

There's a wonderful photo gallery of Walt's life at http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/washingtonpost/obituary.aspx?pid=173070126.

We were class mates. Had a dandy fight our junior year then became friends. Had a great time in Paris a year or two after graduation then touched base a couple of times at reunions. He was a great guy. Peace.

Hi ... I had forgotten our birthdays were so close. I'm on the 20th. Sounds like you have had quite a life.
