Donald's Story

Hi to Anyone stopping by! I've wondered often how friends and acquaintances from King and other CC high schools are doing these days. I haven't yet been able to attend any of the Class of '74 Reunions, and it doesn't look like I'll be able to make the upcoming reunion either in June 2009, but I will if I can get away from my job here in Beaumont, TX for a couple of work days. 35 years is a long time to cover, and a lot of things, big and small as well as just everyday, have happened to me, just as they have in everyone else's life. But I guess the biggest events were: I graduated from Texas A&M with a Mechanical Engineering degree in 1979. Then I went to work direct for DuPont at their chemical plant in Orange, TX.

d went to work for Petrocon Engineering (now Englobal Engineering) in Beaumont, TX as an engineer. I'm still with them and am now a project manager. My dad passed away from Alzheimer's in August 2003. My mom is still healthy and doing fine. Sharon and I (or sometimes just me) try to get back to Corpus 3 or 4 times a year, although sometimes we're able to make it back more often. Those are the high points, I think. I have a very pretty wife who's patient with me, and I'm reasonable happy and engaged with my work, although I'd like to do something different than engineering management if the economy comes back and my finances allow me to do it. If you're reading this, then you've taken the trouble to stop by. As I type this I obviously don't know you've stopped by, but thanks for visiting. I hope you and your family are healthy and doing well. I would also enjoy hearing from you. Goodnight, Don Parish
