Jon's Story
Life After New Trier
I went on to play soccer at Ohio University. I tore up my knee the next Spring and ended up sitting out a year of school. In that time I won the Draft Lottery: #1 by birthday and first letter of my last name: "J"

e to work any more!! Well almost, I now work as a field investigator with a company that provides medical assistance application services. I am the President of the Fox Valley PC Association and active at my church.
I married a WIU classmate in 1975 and we have 2 sons... both doing well and living in the city.
The photo is me after an hour of fishing from the pier at a friend's lake house in NW Illinois. I also love golf (Tucson trip looms!), computers, MP3's, my Forester and LOUD surround sound... I also have gotten addicted to BF2 and online gaming! (=NSDQ= Jack_Mann5)
I can hardly believe it's been 40 years since graduation. The march of time!
Hope to see you there!
