Bill's Story
I did not graduate from Norco. My parents moved to Perris, CA before my senior year. Wish I would have stayed in NORCO. Great memories and good friends. (Rick Mawhorter, Greg Sperry, Flint Lange, Pete Ormanade, Leo Gill, Rienbolds, Lori Faulkner, Cindy Kelsey, many more) Favorite teacher: Mr. Malicay. Best years of my young adult life. Hi, Kathy Mello: use to ride your horse to my house with Michelle Chaffin. First real girlfriend. My class bud, Cindy Kelsey. Debby Patton. Oh, I dated Rhonda McCurdy (Norco - Sorry Smiley!) for a while right after boot camp. Perris High - He Jack Redd and his THREE SISTERS!!! (dated (maybe more) them all) In 1979-Married Becky May - Perris High'77 (since Janeice Wilson ran off with my roommate haha) & 17 years & two sons later / Divorced). "All my ex's live in Texas" all one of them. Speaking of TX, I do visit often, Hi Carrie B.!!! Ended up dating my good friend at the time (1981-1982): Shelley Bennett - Norco High'75 for a while, took a piece of my heart (sorry/I really did love you). If you could only turn back the clock. However, good new-NEWS (Nov 2020): I recently have been chatting with Shelley. So good to catch up. Brings back good memories. Life is a roller coaster. I got to visit a dear friend, Janeice Wilson in OR a few years ago after 40 years. The first girl to break my heart. How time flies. Recent...Expand for more
ly been in contact with Julie Moore, JAVA HUT. Nice catching up. Loved my 21 years in the Marine Corps as a Criminal Investigator. Retired and stayed in civilian law enforcement for a while (CSI). Remarried to an Army chick. My best friend in life. I was an extra in Forrest Gump (Photo attached-first on left). Have a BS in Criminal Justice. Semi-Retired in the mountains in Boone, NC, and work at Appalachian State University. GO MOUNTAINEERS! Funny the path life takes you. Hope to hear from some of my old BUDS. Email me at wjmboonenc at yahoo :) SOOOO Check this out: In 2020, I did the Ancestry DNA thing just to find my heritage. Well, long story short: I was a very close match with a lady who ends up being my half-sister, One of her relatives knew about me and never said a word. We share the same dad William Miller 85 years old and still living in OR, says he never knew. So I should be a Miller. I have visited him and my new sister several times recently. So there is that. Well update, my father passed away in December 2021, ran himself over with his tractor. That is the way he would want to go I guess. I miss you. LEAVE ME A MESSAGE!!! Would love to hear from you!
