Gregg's Story
Life
OK time to update my Classmate's profile as it's been 7 years since my last update...wow how time flies.
I have a myspace page at xxx (UPDATE: Classmates won't let me list a website address but you can send me a Classmate's message and I can reply back with this myspace page). I haven't played a lot with this page but have pictures you can view by clicking on 'Pics' which is right under my picture to the upper left of my myspace page.
It's 2008 and my wife Liz (Doyle) and I still live in Salem. We have only one of our two older shelties left. Darling Moses passed away a couple years ago but sweet Parker is still around at 12 years old. Believe it or not we have picked up three additional sheltie dogs (Wolfboy Jack, Beefy Bailey, and Scabby Scottie). They are quite a handful and our house is filled with hair and a lot of clean up of that other stuff :)
I still work at Hewlett Packard (Corvallis) but they are going through a restructuring process which I can't say too much due to that confidentiality factor but let's just say people are a little worried about their future.
I'm still involved in tennis tournaments. For the past three years I've been ranked #2 in Men's 35 & Over singles for the Pacific Northwest. Have only seen a small handful of past Churchill tennis peers the last 7 years which include Steve Hirons, Jamie Horne, coach Edwin Jaffarian, Doug Watson and of course my twin brother Geary.
My brother Geary lives in Salem also with his wife Teresa. Geary works at Salem Post Office. We try to get out about once a week to hit tennis balls at the Courthouse Tennis Club.
Speaking of my brother Geary I've been playing on ...Expand for more
his Morning Star Church co-ed softball team for the past 4 years. Geary is our team captain and we had an excellent season this year as we finished 1st in our league with 9 wins and 1 loss.
I also love to play golf but don't get out nearly enough. Have sort of lost touch with Bob Penfield who use to drive down from Seattle where we would play golf at Charbonneau Golf Course in Wilsonville, OR. Lancer Mike Turner joined us a few times. Leanne Studenberg was set to play some golf with us but has since moved back to Arizona. This reminds me I need to email these people!
My older brother Cary is single and lives in Aloha, OR where he works for WinCo Foods. Sister Michelle lives in Coburg, OR with husband Pete Knapp and son Ben. Sister Marcia lives in Florence, OR with husband Mike Northrop and sons Jordan & Jared.
Love reading the life stories of all you Lancer peers and enjoy the pics you post. Wish more would leave profile info and pics.
That's all for now and I hope we have a Churchill 30 year reunion! God bless.
