Michael's Story
After leaving high school, I joined the Air Force where I served for 10 years. I was stationed in Italy and got to see a lot of Europe. Also stationed in Sicily, Illinois and finally here in Spokane, Washington. Left the Air Force in 1992 and stayed here in Spokane. Now married to my 2nd (and last) wife, Merilee. Two children, Melody (12) and Jeff (10).
I have worked as an Emergency Medical Technician, Paramedic and now as a Dispatcher for the local ambulance company.
Picked up the trombone again after meeting Merilee. She plays clarinet, flute, piccolo, sax. We have our o...Expand for more
wn big band that plays around the local area. We are both also playing with the Coeur D' Alene Symphony in North Idaho. She is principal clarinet and I play bass trombone. Every once in a while, a few of us will get a country group together with me singing and playing guitar. As you can imagine, the kids are active in music as well. Melody has taken up the violin and Jeff the drums. Both are doing very well.
I get back to KY every once in a while for a visit but like living here in the Northwest.
I would love to hear from folks that I went to school with, so drop me a note.
