Herbert Breece:  

I was born in 1973 in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. I am the third child of five, and the eldest of two boys. In 1977, my parents moved us to a farm near Ellsinore, Missouri. I lived on that farm until 1984. I attended elementary school at Ellsinore. However, before the consolidation, I had to take the 3rd Grade and 5th Grade at Grandin. The teachers that I had while I was attending Ellsinore and Grandin were Mrs. Stahl (Kindergarten), Mrs. Leach (1st Grade), Mrs. Westbrook (2nd Grade), Mrs. Gargac (3rd Grade), Mr. Chapman (4th Grade), and Mrs. Love (5th Grade). I played civic league baseball for one year at Ellsinore, and I was active in the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts. Then in the summer of 1984, my family moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado. We moved into a house near Prospect Lake. However, we only stayed there a month or two before we moved to Widefield, Colorado, and we lived in that town until 1992. I attended Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary School and that is where I finished the 6th Grade. I had Mr. Austin for my teacher. The following year I attended Watson Jr. High and I was there until about half way through my 8th Grade year. I was then transferred to Sproul Jr. High, and finished the 8th Grade. I finished up my High School at a small private school that pretty much was akin to home school. That is why I officially am not a part of any High School, even though I was around the area, or still knew the people I would have graduated with. I graduated from this home school in 1992. In 1989 I was involved in a vehicle accident while I was en route back from my grandmother¿s funeral. I was nearly killed and I had to be air-shipped to St. Louis. Needless to say, I was pretty scarred up for a long time, even today, but it is harder to notice as the years go by. I believe that this was the catalyst that turned me deeper into a loner and into solitude. I worked at various jobs while I was in Colorado, but in 1992, I left Colorado with my family to head back to Poplar Bluff, Missouri. I worked at various jobs since then as I made my way through college. I graduated from Three Rivers Community College in Poplar Bluff in 1996 and then moved to Canton, Missouri to attend Culver-Stockton College and to study Theatre. I also became a member of the Lambda Chi A...Expand for more
