School
Remembering DHS in the late 60's...I was most fond of vocational classes...Diversified Occupations (DO)...VICA, I was class Prez in 69-70...Mr. Williams was the teacher he wicked funny, I think I fashioned my humor after him...don't know if he's alive or passed...he'd be in his late 70's or early 80's I would think...strange how we drift so far off. The cafe was my favorite other place, worked as a cashier during the lunch periods...had a lot of friends but never anyone real close...funny...don't have any really close frien...Expand for more

Military
Didn't do the service...kinda of regret it...'69 was Vietnam time...didn't want to go...but I love vets and all they have done to keep this Nation "free"...next time you see a gal or guy in a military uniform...be brave, be bold, make the move, go up to them and shake their hand and thank them for being a vet!!! Give 'em a hug too, it makes them so darn proud to be a vet!!
