Life
Some of you may remember me as Hughie Thomas. I was adopted by my step-father when I was a senior. High School graduation produced a not quite ready

After 3 1/2 years in the military, including 16 months in Vietnam, I returned to civilian life ready for college and a new beginning. I chose San Diego State University.

I was fortunate to discover the mortgage loan industry and to secure a job through the help of a person that I had been in the service with. I opened my own Corporation as a mortgage broker in San Diego in 1980 and I am still doing the same thing 22 years later.
The children are all in college and pursuing their life dreams. I work out of the house now and play golf 2 to 3 times a week in addition to all the other activities that living in Southern Calif. have to offer. I am sure I would not be able to deal with the humidity etc. in Savannah, but I sure do miss the Savannah that I remember fondly. Please send me an e-mail if you wish. It would be great after all these years.
