Junior's Story
Went to Glenbard West in 1962 and then Glenbard East 1963 through 1966, because of the change in school districts. My first love was Lynn C. Nelson and she graduated in 1966 from Glenbard West. She found a new love while I was in Vietnam.
After graduation in 1966, I recieved my draft notice and then enlisted in the United States Marine Corp. Served four years and made one tour in Viet Nam in 1967-1968. While in the Marine Corp I visited 26 foreign countries and attended Leeward Community college in Hawaii. I was honorably discharged in 1970. I went to work as an electrical draftsman & engineer in Itasca, IL with Culter-Hammer. I attended college (College of Dupage Glen Ellyn & Dekalb College Atlanta) at night until age 32. My major was Business Administration. I changed jobs in 1972 because of President Nixon's wage and salary freeze, and went to work as a mail carrier in 1972. I was promoted to Foreman of mails (Roselle ILL) in 1973, transferred to Lawrenceville GA in 1975 with assignments in the Atlanta GA Post Office. I was then selected and appointed to Postmaster Grovetown GA in 1978, and then Postmaster Eastman ...Expand for more
GA in 1981. I served as State President of the National League of Postmasters in 1981 & 1982. I retired in December 31, 2004 and was credited with 37 1/2 years of service time. My greatest honors was, serving my country in the military, be elected President of the Postmaster Assn in the state of Georgia, recieving the community sprit award in two different years from our local Chamber of Commerce (for my work in the community), and lastly being honor and slected as Grand Marshal of our community's annual Christmas Parade upon my retirement. I Married my wonderful wife Darlene Dierks in 1971, and we were married for 41 years. We have three children, and nine very sweet grandchildren. Life has been wonderful and God has blessed ÃÂ
us in many ways. Other than Darlene having MS and being confined to a wheelchair for the last 10 years of her, life has been good to us. I'm sure that she is dancing again in heaven, for I lost my loving bride on July 28, 2011.........I miss her very dearly but know in my heart she is with our Lord and Savior without pain and saying, " Don't worry about me!" God truly blessed my life with her in it!
