Dick's Story

Life I worked in the photography area, for Boeing as a technical photographer and owned my own studio for over seven years. My main work experience after that was with Metro Transit in the Seattle area where I retired at the end of 2003 as a Service Supervisor. I married Ann Jackson, also of the class of 1961 but from Hoquiam, WA HS. Annie was a school teacher. We have two sons and three grandkids. Edit: Oct. 2006- Older son has remarried and in that step I have gained three more grandkids, making the total now six. Annie died 23 July 2005 of complications from rheumatoid arthritis and I have been trying to learn how to live without her since then. Edit: Oct. 2006- I have started looking for a new lady who I can cherish and spend the rest of my life with. Dating sure is different than it was in the early to mid-1960s! We were RVers who enjoyed Snowbirding in Arizona over the winters since I retired and our month long trip to Eastern Washington every summer. I have just bought another Mazda Miata and plan to get back into sports car activities and also have been acquiring more digital photography equipment and learning to use it.

ctivity list. Edit: Oct. 2006- I have joined the local YMCA and gotten into physical fitness training in a fairly intense way, wanting to loose weight and get into better shape. It is working. I live in Mount Vernon, Washington while not away with the motorhome. I am wanting to re-establish contact with friends from my school years, and with some of the many I attended school with but didn't really know at that time. That's one of the disadvantages of a large school like LC, there are so many you really don't have the chance to get to know. We will have a 50th reunion in 2011, right? Maybe we can have mini-reunions in the in between years, too. Edit: May, 2007 - Well, the dating process worked well. I met a lady who lost her husband shortly after I lost Annie & we started spending a lot of time together. I asked her to marry me and she said, "Yes." We were married 28 Apr 07 & are starting our "new" life together. I'll post a photo of the two of us. Edit January, 2022 - My wonderful wife, Patti B, had a massive stroke last Monday and died in a Bellingham, WA hospital Tuesday evening Jan 25th. We had a bit over 15 wonderful years together and now I am feeling lost again.
