Mark's Story
LIFE [30 years after Graduation - 15 June 2009]
Hard to believe that 30 years ago, I spent Friday night at St Waudru Cathedral in Mons, Belgium, getting ready to close the chapter on my childhood. As I reflect on the beginning of High School as a freshman at Maryvale in Phoenix Arizona and how warm the weather was there. Little did I know that I would look back at the last three plus years at SHAPE and realize that they were good years and I probably should have enjoyed them more and not always hated the cold weather so much. I treasure those years and fondly remember that each one was better than the last and hope to run into some old friends once again.
After graduation, I stuck around, attended the fall 1979 Homecoming, worked at Chievres Exchange & Beverage shop before my father's PCS. I eventually enrolled in a college in Californian before the military joining t...Expand for more
he Air Force. Instead of the short stint I had originally sought, I made it a career and completed 23+ years when my career field was downsized and outsourced. I returned as a contractor, working for the same unit.
I counted my assignments in months until I got married in 1990. The Air Force downsized and I was left in San Antonio, Texas. It's a nice place to raise a family and the weather is good - No Snow! I have three beautiful and smart daughters that I'm very proud of. Unfortunately, my wife of almost 19 years decided that she didn't want to be married anymore and divorced me this year. While the event is still fresh, I'm working on closing this chapter of my life and moving on. My oldest just turned 16 and has started Teenage driver's education -pray for me!
If you're ever in the San Antonio area, give me a call - I'm in the local phone book. Go Spartans!
