Life
Hello. I married Mike Kirkland two weeks before I walked in the line and received my diploma in 1971. That marriage lasted 18 years and two wonderful children later. My son, Michael Keith Kirkland was born first and he is now married, a Deputy Sheriff in Madison County Fl, and has two sons - Austin and Trey. My daughter - Christy V.

My life has been never dull. Although it sounds like I have had difficulty, I really haven't. I realize that I would have rather been married only once but that was not God's plan for my life. We both live in Madison Florida to be near the kids and my grand-kids. When scanning down the list of those who have listed themselves so many wonderful memories come flooding back to me from High School.
What I found out about High School is that it doesn't matter rather you were popular or not, because when you leave high school and enter the real world all that stuff doesn't matter anyway. Life gives you new friends and experiences to add to your friendships list. There were some very good friends I still think about today and it would be great to see them or hear from them again to just say hello and hope all is well with them.
