s in ATL Ramp Services for twenty years. After Eastern I've done a lot of things and now I work with my son in his flooring store. I married a fantastic lady named Nancy Coleman a graduate of Campbell High School class of 1961 but lost her to cancer in 86, we had two children Karen and Steven and now have five grandchilderen two grand daughters and three grandsons. Actually two grandsons and another due in January 08. A lot of fond memories of my days at school though I doubt many people will remember who I am. I was a tenor in the GCI chorus and loved all the chorus trips and I was the bus driver for the Saturday trips to town and the tractor to the dump. Also worked in the dining hall. Would love to hear from anyone who attended school with me or military friends.
