Robert's Story
Life
Hi classmates, After graduation I joined the Air Force. I became a security policeman. I asked to be stationed by the mountains. They sent me to a place called Cheyenne, WY. I can see the mountains, they are about 60 miles away. I had hoped to travel the world, I ended spending my whole enlistment in Cheyenne. I married a local girl in 1978. My first child was born in 1980 (a girl). I left the Air Force in 1981. We moved a whole 50 miles away to Ft. Collins, Colorado. I started working as a security officer for a company that was building a electric producing power plant. 10 months later we move back to Cheyenne to be closer to my wifes family. I continue working for the same company. In 1982 my second child is born (a boy). In 1983 I joined the Wyoming National Guard as a Crash, Fire and Rescueman. I would go in 2 days a month and two weeks a year of active duty, so I was still able to continue with my regular job. In 1985 my wife passed away from cancer. At my job I moved from the security department to the operations department. I now became a power plant operator. It was a good thing that they gave me this opportunity ( carrying a gun was not a good thing for me at this time). I was still with the Air National Guard and had some time to go on deployments to Cal., Fla. , Hawaii. Good times. I met my...Expand for more
present wife in 1987 and we were married in 1988. We have a daughter together. Born 1990. So here it is the year 2000. I am still living in Cheyenne. I have moved up in the company and I just retired from the Guard. I am coming up on 20 years with the company. I am not really thinking about retirement yet, but you never know. So here it is now 2010 and I am still in Cheyenne and I still work for the same company. My position is now a senior controlroom operator. I lost my son 3 years ago. I am still married to the same woman. Don't know what she sees in me. And time keeps moving on. Just when you think you know what you are going to do, Things change. I have come this far without a plan. I guess I will keep on without one. 2018 and I have 2 grandchildren and I am thinking of retirement for next year after 38 years with the company. Well I just retired after 38 years and 3 months. It's taking a little getting used to. Going to bed at a normal time and getting up and not having to go to work. I now have 4 grand children. That's not many but when they visit they tire me out.. i may have to take vacation from retirement. UPDATE , next month is the BIG 65. Another mile stone. I don't think I ever thought about tuning 65. Medicare and Social Security. Bye for now Minisink Alumni. I hope to read some other bios.
