I guess my fondest memories wold be my senior year, Jewelry Construction, Metal shop, Repelling on Wild Bill's Yellow River Expedition up by Effigy Mounds. I hung out in the smoking area between classes, got a girlfriend from a different school. After graduating in "82", I went into The U.S.N. as a Sea bee in NMCB-62. I got out in "85", while in the service, I had the grand pleasure of touring many countries, Guam, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Hawaii, Alaska and Okinawa. I was a builder, for KP, I was a night Baker.

ild was born, a boy. I finally settled on C st with my family Switched jobs to R.E.M. Iowa and in "94". moved back to MS to work for my brother in his sign business. I had several jobs in the 16 yrs along the MS coast, My final Job being a School Bus Mechanic & Shop supervisor. In Feb 2010, I found my wife deceased in a little privacy building I had built for her in the back yard. She passed from Carbon Monoxide Poisoning, due to the charcoal she used for her prayers and ceremonies. I almost went insane with grief. I moved back to Iowa in Apr and Purchased a home and Building in Center Point where I was going to create a small gift shop with Concessions. In Oct of "10" I met my current Mate and moved her into my home. In "93" I sold my store for a profit I could not refuse due to many medical issues. I retired myself from the working environment and currently enjoy spending time with my mate and our two Shelties, Meshia & PePe. We hibernate in the winter, lol and spend our summer months working at my mothers 10 acres, helping her maintain the property. There you have it, life after graduation in a nut shell.
