Bill, I noticed that you had spent time at Honeywell. Tell me more. They are one of my bigger customers.
And, Happy Birthday.

Bill,
It's been a long time since we wandered the halls of Adams High school. Thank you for your military service. Please share some more of your life stories.

Mr Laurita was my home room teacher at Adams hiddin downstairf in the Little Theater. He allowed us a lot of freedom ( he wasn't there very often). I thougjt that I heard that he went on to be a South Bend Policeman. Maybe someone can coberate. 

John Shanley was my homeroom teacher at Lincoln and also science teacher. I remember him always being plesant and thorough. He was a great teacher and it wa interesting that he then followed us to John Adams.

Getting old is not for the timid. Just learned that my lifetime warranty expired at 80 years so I have to pay for the knee replacement planned for January 2024. Life is good. Still working almost full time. I will get my gold watch for 50 years at Electronics Inc in 2024 and plan a big celebration. Business is thriving and we continue to inovate new products for the shot peening marketplace. This is a metal improvement technology that helps prevent fatigue fracture. We have distributors in 20 counties and plan to add three more patents in 2024 bringing our total to 33 US patents. I'm reducing the number of boards that I serve on. The remains two are Mishawaka Troop Town, housing for veterans and South Bend Alumni Association (sponsor of this and 6 other web sites). I was recently inducted into the South Bend Hall of Fame for my work with the arts (Symphony, Civic Theater, Museum of Art) and the MTT. We are selling commemorative bricks to help funding. mishawakatrooptown.org
Four foundations have been prepared and two duplexes will be started in Spring of 2024. Housing for 6-12 months will get vets stable and ready for their next steps. The village is on Jefferson near Reggio's restaurant next to VFW post 360. You must know someone you can honor with a brick Please check it out.

Richard, your story about knee resonates with me. I get a new one in January. I filed a claim for my lifetime warranty but discovered it expired after 80 years. I should have known better Hope you are healthy and happy. Share some more stories.

Phil, just reading your comments is inspiring. Thanks for helping to serve others. I'm sure you have blessed many. Keep up the good work and keep in touch. Share some more stories with us.

Kay, is it possible we are in our 8th decade? I hope you are healthy and happy. Please share some more stories. Best regards.

Happy birthday. Hope you are healthy and happy. Share some more stories with us. Let us know what you did after Adams high school.

Terry: I remember you as an outstanding student at Adams. Thanks for your military service.
Hope you are healthy and happy. Please share more stories. Your children and grandchildren want to know more about you. Preserve the history. Happy birthday

You have another birthday coming. Good idea. Keep getting more and more. Hope you are healthy and happy. Keep in touch with our classmates, share your stories. Your family will appreciate hearing them.

Bill, WOW. I guess I really didn't know you had such a prolific background. Maybe I shouldn't be surprised. You and Bill Butler, Hal Brueseke were quite the team. My brother Jim also got his ham radio license but I never went down that path. Hope your birthday is enjoyable and that you get all the cake you can handle.

Happy birthday. Glad to read your story about Latin. I enjoyed learning from Ms K while at Adams. It helped me a lot as I pursued engineering at Purdue. You should be congratulated on your efforts to share language skills. Thank you.

Jeffrey, Welcome to our Eagles web site. It's always nice to read about the careers of so many talented students. Thanks for sharing and add more as time permits.
