John's Story
I only went to Rose for 3½ months, so with most who remember me, it'll be from Aycock and/or Wahl-Coates. Dad shipped me off to prep school in Virginia in 9th grade, but I started having problems with abiding by the rules etc., so they finally sent me home in Feb. '75 after a stream of violations. I did manage to graduate at Rose, after basically sleeping through Mrs. Baldwin's, Mrs. Castellow's, Mrs. Brannan's, Mrs. Harris's, and Mr. Pierce's classes. No reflection on them!
I'm fully retired these days, last job was 8 years of teaching MIS (Management Information Systems, the computer side of business) courses in the College of Business at ECU. Inherited a small farm in 2013, where Mom grew up. Moved out here in 2015, and country living's great. ...Expand for more
Finally got married the same year, but it didn't last. Oh well. Still trying to get this place whipped into shape. Working on getting a garden going, want to grow some food organically. I also want to plant some fruit and nut trees soon; already have a 15-tree pecan grove my granddaddy planted in the 1920s. Critters keep showing up out here; I'm up to 4 dogs and a cat at last count. Many cousins live down the road, and they have 4 dogs between them, so we've got a pack.
Am totally cleaned up nowadays, after decades of too much partying. A body can't take but so much! No tobacco, alcohol, drugs (legal or otherwise) now; eating vegan & exercising pretty regularly....yardwork accounts for a lot of that. Life's good.
Hope all of you are doing well.
