Ricky, I am in awe when I read all that you have done with your life! I hope that you are doing well and that you have a wonderful upcoming birthday!!!!!
Hello Mary Jane, I just wanted to thank you again for dropping by my observatory and checking out the program for the 5th graders! Always nice to have "big people" show up!!! Hope you and your family are doing well!!!

Ricky, what a wonderful story to read - and what a unique set of places that you have lived!!! I could only smile at the "Roll Tide" - I worked at MSFC - when were you at Redstone?? We might have been there at the same time... my years were about about 1986 and 2006 - You have done well in this life and it is an honor to know you!!!

I hope that all who read this are doing well and having success and health in life. I am thankful for the lessons learned from all my experiences, both new and old and those at CHS. I am always amazed at the brevity of life and how fast 50 years since HS graduation has passed. I sometimes think of my years at CHS and it sure does not seem that long ago. As we all grow older, you all have talents that you can use to support public education and teachers, but I hope that you all will do what you can, The future depends on all of us doing our part.
