Rodney's Story
Went off to college, had a family, went to work, tried many careers, raised my family, the rest of the story is being written on a daily basis.
We lived in Abilene, TX. San Antonio, TX. Carrollton TX and currently in Highland Village, TX.
My kids have been a huge suprise. That never turns out the way you plan. I have (03) fine young men. They are far better men than I will ever be. I am grateful to have such fine young men as my sons. They were a challenge but they ended up being my best effort in this life.
Mr. Hill. He was our middle school Choir Director at JP Elder Middle School. He was a truly amazing man. He was a hero of the Second World War. He served in Eroupe as a soldier of Patton's Army and saw action at the Battle of the Bulge. He was a fasinating man with a kind and gentle spirit. He was the first person that really believed in me and encouraged me.

I am all over the board with this question. I would be very happy in London, Dublin or Ireland as a writer of sucessful novels. I would love to be a free enough spirit to be a true "Biker".

I dont know what happened to my first real love crush. I wish I could tell her how badly my heart hurt for her and how much I wanted to "rescue" her. She was a year younger than me and a Cheerleader. I thought she was the purest and most radiant, beautiful, angel. Carolyn Crittenden where are you? You will never know how much I loved you or how terrified I was to let you know it.
I worked as a journeyman plumber while I attended college in Abilene and we had a project at a packing plant. I worked for several weeks on the "kill floor" of a packing plant. That will curb tour enthusiasm for beef, believe me.
I would have told the people I liked more about how I felt about them. I would have been more open.
