Tully's Story
A lot has happened since high school. I went to MSU and got a degree in civil engineering and then got a masters degree in Environmental Engineering. Moved to New Orleans, married a great girl from Baton Rouge and now have two grown daughters.
Over the years I have lived in New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Slidell and Biloxi. In 2013 I got cancer . . . twice. The second time it was Stage 4. I'm certain that I am here only by the grace of God. He has really blessed me. Although I am still a cancer patient and have to take an anticancer drug, I am enjoying what most folks would call great health.

Please don't interpret anything I have said as bragging. I will be the first to admit that I have lost a lot of my Jr. High track team speed. (OK nearly all) Now I make the winners of all the races look really. really fast. I'm just very thankful that God has given me a lot of life in my years.
It's really good to see updates for a lot of my friends. I still remember everyone from school. I hope you are all doing well.
This an October 2022 update. I'm still a cancer patient and have had close to 100 infusion treatments and taken about 2200 chemo pills. But I'm doing well and am very thankful for that. I've done the Heart of Dixie Triathlon 4 of the past 7 years while on chemo. I was slow this year but very slow last year. That's improvement!
