Keith's Story
Hi to everyone in the class of 69'. Let me tell you abit about myself. I was abit of a loaner. I was definately not a well known. I will admit to quitting half way through 11th grade, returned the next year realizing quiitting was not a smart move. After I finished the next year (with only a half year to graduate) Mr. Jackson said I was to old to return and I was only trying to beat the DRAFT and he wouldn't allow me to return. In which I didn't, but I diid get drafted in Jan. of 71. I did my time of 3 years and 1 week in the army, with the const. engineers. Did not go to NAM but to Germany. That is where I lost touch with everyone I did know. Married while in the service, now divorced. Have lived in Col., all over the mid-west, Fla., and I'm now in Charlotte, N.C., for about 5 yrs. then back to Fla. to retire. Have been really self-employed in the constrution trades for about 30 Yrs.
But back to the school days. I grew up in the 14 mile and Crooks area. Spent alot of time in Clawson. I was not a GREASER or a FRAT. I was a mix and was just myself. Once I ...Expand for more
received my drivers licence I become a car nut (I still am) I would drive all the time and spent alot of time on Woodward.Telegragh, and Gratiot. I loved to cruise and race. My DMV report proves this....Knock on wood I haven't had a ticket since 71'.
Looking over the class of 69' I do recognize alot of names, and I do mean alot. I met lots of good people and afew not so good but it seems the names are endless. I rack my brain as to how did I know or affiliate myself with all these people. It's mind boggling. I ask the question, was it in class, friends of friends,or just meeting at a party some where. WOW mind boggling.
Just afew of names that stick in my head(I'm just not signalling any one out, there are many) Knope,Marks,Yamarino, Kochis, Morton, Clancy, Levy, Jeffs, Carlson, Parker, Story, Belton, Brown, Felt, Bodding, Pressley, Siterlet, Adams, Schmidt, Like I said it is mind boggling if you just sit down and think of all the people we have met and maybe really be-freinded. The list could go on and on.....
Hope everyone is well, and doing fine....
