BRYaN's Story
After Lincoln, I moved back to Kentucky for the summer, to swim competatively with my old team of course. Then I moved up to Green Bay for a semester of intensive learning, before I headed off to Germany. I lived there for six years, going to med school for a year, working at the German Red Cross Hospital and, of course, touring and making MANY friends in MANY places. My heart is still there. I was engaged to a German girl from a very small village. I lived with her and her family for 2 years, before returning to the US. She was too scared to leave her village, so things did not work out the way we had planned.
I love to tell people the stories of that period of my life.
When I did settle down, I met a girl from Manitowoc, of all places. I was back in town to visit an old friend, and there she was.
We got married in '89, have two beautiful daughters, 12 and 15, traveled many times back to Germany so they could meet my friends and get a taste of what I had e...Expand for more
xperienced and finally settled down to start working.
I fast tracked my education here in Madison. B.S.Ed. and MA Linguistics and Philology. I did it in 3.5 years, which I do NOT recommend. I got burned out on education. I did land a couple jobs teaching German ion Middle Schools and High Schools, and wound up as head of the German Dept. of a small private college. Once the politics got to be too much, I decided to try another avenue.
We are currently partners in Real Estate, and I am also substitute teaching, mostly at the High School. My daughter is even proud to walk into school with me! I must have done something right.
There is so much more to tell, and maybe I will even be in the country for the next reunion.
A romantic at heart, I have thought about my time in Manitowoc and at Lincoln many times over the years.
I pray you, who are reading this, are blessed abundantly, and doing well in life.
