David's Story

Life Hi everyone! It's been awhile since we graduated from Pentucket and I'm sure we have been through many changes in our lives. Marriage, children, jobs(too many to count) and friendships. But we are all connected by good ole Sachem Pride. I'm living up in Hampton, NH(11 yrs) after Boston(8 yrs)and Cal.(5 yrs) where my life changed for the good and the bad. I was living with Mark Hume and Mark Lagarde. I had a terrible accident and almost died on the operating table. Lost the use of my left arm(no more most athletic) but I try to live up to those high expectations. I obtained a BS in Psychology at Worcester State College(80-84)and MBA in Business at Suffolk University(90-92). I've had every job from different types of sales, physical labor, Mass. Office on Disability, restaurant mgmt(Crickets/Lily's in Faneuil Hall)/owner(Down the Hatch in Hampton BCH, teaching at Exeter High School (if you can believe that one) and now back to owning a restaurant(well not yet, it's being built in Epping, NH) We bought an old church and converting it into an Irish restaurant/Pub. And get this, we are calling it the "Holy Grail" Am I going straight to hell or what? I'm married(almost 13 years) to my lovely wife from NJ Maureen with three beautiful girls(help me please!!) ages 10,8,6. I have run 5 marathons and training for one in Oct. 2007 in Maine and still playing soccer with an over 40 team out of Billerica, MA. I still stay in touch with a few guys from school like Ed Madden, Jim Bothwell, Heb Clark(79), Mark Hume, Jeff Robinson(79) and John Buzzell(82?). I have bumped into a lot of classmates over the years Li...Expand for more

I hope all is well and maybe we'll see each other around or at one of our reunions soon. Good news!!12/1/07, we are three weeks into construction and working hard to get the restaurant open in March 08. A week before St. Patrick's Day! If you are in the area, please stop in and ask for me. I would love to see anyone from Pentucket, WSC or Suffolk U. I'll keep you posted as we progress through the project and near the opening. Have a good holiday season!! Happy New Year!! 2008 is upon us and I'm looking forward to a new exciting start with the 'Holy Grail opening in a few months. Things are still progressing along, I think that we are still on track for March. Send me a note and I'll put you on my distribution list for new updates. I wish everyone the best for the new year. When is our next reunion? 2010! 30 years, ouch! May 2008! Opened the Holy Grail finally. Very busy and very hectic. Working out the bugs and trying to improve each day. We have been trying to find the right mix of employees to make our restaurant run smoothly and consistent. Dec. 2008!
