Donald's Story
I have and am still living a wonderful life. Upon my graduation, I went into the Air Force right after graduation and I retired in 1989 (26 years). Upon retirement, I went to work for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (1990). I am married to the most wonderful lady I have ever met and we will celebrate our 39th wedding anniversary in July of 2012. We have two wonderful children, Ray and Melisa, plus three wonderful granddaughters. The family lives in Maryland. Upon our retirement, my wife and I will start traveling around the U.S.A. We plan on traveling in a Motor Home and will be gone for approximately three years. Being in the Air Force has allowed my family and I to travel around the ...Expand for more
world, twice. Now it is time for us to travel this fabulous U.S.A. and see things we haven't been able to see, because of working. We may even catalog our travels and write a book about our adventures (Big Dream).
Being 66 has only slowed me down, not stopped me from enjoying my family and life. Maybe, some day, I'll go to one of the school reunions and meet old friends I haven't talked to or seen in over 49 years. I know some, if not all, of us have changed our appearance, but the memories are still there. Looking forward to hearing/seeing you all.
My days at Civic Memorial have been good ones and I still remember those times. I hope you all have had a wonderful life, like I am still enjoying.
