13   If you could change anything about your high school experience, what would it be?

I wish my parents would have built our house over by the school building. I lived next door to Joe Bob Lambert and the Sunday afternoon football games in the front yard that he made me play in were detrimental to my health. I also wish that I would have studied more.

14    As you approach retirement age . . . are you ready?

It will be a big adjustment—I will probably work another five years or so.

15    In your opinion, what is that “certain something” that has kept so many of our class so connected for so long?

We grew up in a “small town” environment at a new school –so many of our families were close friends

16    If David Wise would share his “Wayback Machine” and take you to 1962, would you go?

 I would go, but I wouldn’t let David drive

 17    Anything you want to ramble about? 

      I am including several pictures of my family—Jana and I were married 10 years ago by the Honorable judge Randy Catterton. We really enjoy being with our kids and grand kids and I hope in the future we will be able to devote more time to them.. We also enjoy golf, fly fishing, and coaching Special Olympics..Jana and I have had a girls basketball team for 10 years (our girls have played in the state tournament for 9 years), and a golf team for about five years. That’s about it for me—Thanks.
