Life
How is everyone this fine year? The 20th Class Reunion is almost here! Gee, how time flies. I joined the AF in Dec. '82 and was honorably discharged in June '92 from Lowry AFB, Denver, CO. I decided to stay. I enjoy living here. I transfered here back in 1988 after a 3 year tour in Germany. The AF experience was great. Got to tour parts of Europe. I even ran into several high school buddies at the recruiting office prior to enlisting (Tim Huffman and David Nelson). Even ran into Tim at the same airbase in Germany. I saw Tommy Davis in basic training at Lackland AFB in Texas and a few other people along the way that I cannot recall. It's a small world isn't it?

ere for me career wise, so I moved back to Denver and landed a job at an environmental consulting firm and worked there several years. I received excellent training and was suppose to receive my masters certification in government contracting and be promoted to Contracting Director. I was recently laid off back in June 2001. I was rehired at the Environmental Consulting firm back in Jan 2002 (gave up the network marketing deal). I just bought a new house and will close probably in July 2002(new construction). Denver has grown tremendously since I moved here. We have several new arenas and a new football stadium is about to open in August 2001. I love living in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. I enjoy camping, water skiing in the summer and snow skiing in the winter. I look forward to hearing from you and seeing you next year at the 20th. Keep in touch.
