Bill's Story

Bill Morgan here...Moved to Rockport in 1965 from Dallas. Attended RFHS from 66-70'. Spent some crazy years in Rockport. Left Rockport April Fools' Day, 1971 and flew to Anchorage, Alaska for 6 months of being somewhere else. That turned into 30 years of living. I met and married my wife, raised two children, found a career in the oilfield,and lived through some of the most interesting times of the 20th century. My career took us to Africa and Europe from 2002 - 2006. While there, I played in a band made up of oilfield professionals. The picture is from the Oilman's Golf Tournament held in Abuja, Nigeria. Then we lived in Houston for two years and now I am back in Alaska. I still love music, play in bands, write, hang out with my wife and adult daughters, and fish as much as I can. I am now grandpa for a second time. Update...number 3 grandchild is on approach.

Somewhere between the prayers and some pretty frank discussions, I gradually opened my mind to the possibility that my life was a gift and not a curse. I was dating a girl who took me to her church every time the doors were open. Long story short I became a follower of Christ. First He saved my life, then me. All these years later and I am still a follower of Christ. Here are some Rockport memories that make me smile. Dollar Night at the Drive In. Friday nights at Little Bob's after midnight (technically Saturday mornings and not really Rockport) Frisbee on the grass at the end of Little Bay. Schools without air conditioners (How did we do it?) Cars without air conditioners (see above) Apollo 11 Lands on Moon July 20th 1969! Mrs Hale Mr Pickett Mr Heinsohn (who spit in his coffee to keep students from messing with it) Roatens drug store lunch counter.
