Chris's Story
After Jonesville, I went to Appalachian for a BS in health and PE. I taught and coached for two years in Wake County. I then returned for a MEd at Carolina in counseling. While at Appalachian I joined the Army National Guard. After receiving my commission I trained as a field artillery officer at Fort Sill, OK. I returned to Greensboro where I worked as a school counselor until retirement in 2002. I have been back to fill-in as a counselor 7 times since retirement.
While in Greensboro my wife, Sandra, and I raised our two children, Lee and Molly. We now have 5 grandchildren.
I retired from the Guard as a lieutenant colonel after more ...Expand for more
than 29 years.
I now am fully retired. I have traveled several times and have enjoyed it. I have visited Japan, England, Russia, Hungary, Austria, Germany, France, and Belgium. After my first visit to France I called Mrs. Snow and thanked her for her French classes. I was with 12 college students. Some of them were taking French in college. They would not speak French to anybody. When I rode the bus I was talking my Yadkin County "franch" to folks before going two blocks. No matter how far I go or how long I live, I will always consider myself a Yadkin County boy.
I look forward to seeing folks at the next Jonesville Jubilee.
