Robert's Story
My lovely wife of 48 years and I live in Evanston, Illinois and Green Lake, Wisconsin. We have two sons and four grandchildren (all of whom, of course, are above average). I am partially retired from my law practice and am vice president of the Green Lake Conservancy, a non-profit land trust. Following graduation from Marquette Law School, I served in the Air Force for six months, then joined the U.S. State Department as a contracting officer in Washington, D.C. and Saigon. Between 1968 and 1971 I was a trial attorney in the U.S. Justice Department stationed in New York City. I have now been with my law firm, Barnes Richardson & Colburn for 50 years.
I have fond memories of BS class of '56, and have occasional contact with my best friends Bernie Krueger and Tom...Expand for more
Dix. I also clearly remember Roger Hargreaves and Nadine Putlak. Nadine's picture confirms she hasn't changed since 8th grade. I see Roger became a pharmacist.
I wonder what's become of some of our other classmates, Mike Wabezewski, Laverne Simborski (sp?), Monica Kania, Larry Aldredge, Greg Jack, etc.? I see that Nadine Putlac is also on Classmates.com. Norb Domagalski, Phd (Norb Dee), Jerry Meisenheimer and Jim Saranski were at my Don Bosco 50th reunion several years ago, and it was good to see them.
I also remember the sisters, including seventh grade Sister Eugenda, who was a most kind person. I also recall Miss Kreasal's 1954 green Chevy convertible.
