James "Spencer"'s Story
1965 what a great year! But we have lost some friends and I hope we still remember them.High School was some of the best times. I still remember a lot of you class mates. Sorry I didn't make the 50th. I'm in those Golden years and the Dr keep trying to get my gold. I guess I was lucky when I got hurt in the service, 69. Va benefits at 56 and they retired me. Those who knew me saw a change from my youth to high school. I have to thank my uncle BOB and his ranch in Ritzville, WA.
At our age of 70+ I have few regrets. Been positive with a great life. I thank all those who developed my attitude and how I am today. Thank you!

I sold my house in Naples Fl. this year (15). I couldn't get my better half to winter there. Made some $$$ so I purchased what I hope to be a collectible 2002 red corvette. They only made Copes that year but it was converted to a convertible and a fuel injector added to make it 650HP.
Family past history. Great, great grand father lived in Denmark and come to the US via San Francisco. Was a soldier in the last Indian problem in MT and ID.(chief Joseph) When he mustered out they gave him 320A of farm land in Soldier ID. The next 2 generations were farmers. I work on my uncles cattle ranch 6 summer in Ritzville, WA. I broke a horse the simmer I was 16. This was a great success. but lost it due to a broken leg that fall.
