Watch grass grow in summer and snow fall in winter and try to get use to this computer. Who ever imaged back when we were in school.
Mom and Dad moved to Delaware, Ohio after graduation. Dad got a new job there. I remember getting the letter about the move while I was station in Germany (army) Really had a strange filling when I came home. I didn't know where to go Coal Grove or Delaware.

If I could go back with a due over I would not have drank, smoked, eaten food bad for me, not dated the same girl all during school and had the nerve to ask those several special girls out even if I'd been rejected, I never told any of them that I liked them. I would have worked harder on my track and field events
UPDATE: 2014 December
Sandy passed away June 2013 after a 7 year struggle with cancer. She passed peaceably at home in her bed with friends and family around her.
I am now a newly wed with a girl from our class (65) Nancy Ross-Culyer. We married a few months ago. She was married to David Culyer from Ky. for 40 years. He passed from cancer in 2009. We are both happy and it was like marring your old friend.
