John's Story
So fellow Memorial classmates....how are you? Healthy I hope to hear. Wiser than before...perhaps even wealthy. Wealth is relevant, and in these times, I would take health and happiness over monetary worries.
In my case, as active and purposeful as I have been with my life, found out recently that I am pre diabetic. Talk about life changing events! I am now extremely aware of what I consume, reading all the labels on food before purchasing them, since carbs must be kept to a minimum...no more than 30 grams per meal.

I have been with Jostens now since 1984 and continue to enjoy working with America's teens in creating specialized scholastic recognition products.

When is that?
Drop me a line....let me know how life has been. I wish you all the finest that life has to offer.
