Comments

After high school, Ashland College for 2 years. Transferred to Western Illinois University after my folks moved to Chicago. Got a business degree and went to work for Scott Durst's dad. 11 years with that company. Lived in Maine, then Strongsville for short stints. Married my college sweetheart as I was being transferred to Syracuse, NY. There for 3 years. Then to Ogden, Utah for 5 years. Had kids there and moved back to Illinois so my wife could be near her family. Worked for my father-in-law for 10 years in Rockford, IL. After he sold the company I went to work for a private Christian school as their IT director. Been there for the past 25 years. Announced my retirement a year ago, but decided to stay on for another year. Planning retirement for next year, mid 2024. Active with my church and the friends I've met there, which has been a life saver, especially when it come to keeping a marriage together for 44 years.

Scotty my man. My best childhood friend. Lookin good brother. Thanks for your service. I cannot believe it's been 50 years. And I think about 25 or so since I saw you last at your sisters wedding. Hope everything is going well for you. Looks like it is.

Hi Don. As I recall you were quite the chick magnet and athlete in school. And an all around nice guy. Good to see you've done well for yourself and enjoyed life with your family.

Sorry to hear of Jim's passing.  He and I were pretty good friends in high school.  Totally lost track of him after the 5 year reunion, but it's still sad to see a classmate go.  RIP Jim.

Sorry to hear of Jim's passing.  He and I were pretty good friends in jr. high.  Totally lost track of him after I saw him at our 5 year reunion, but it's still sad to see a classmate go.  RIP Jim.
