Dan's Story
Graduated in 1979, tried out University of Colorado for a year. It was nice, but too cold. Returned to Baton Rouge and LSU. Changed my major from English to Finance and graduate from LSU in 1983. Worked with the family for a while and then moved on to law school.

in love with the girl that cut my hair. Got married about four months after our first date. Couldn't raise a family on a DA's salary (less than the police down there). Sorry, no premature baby story there. First child not born until 15 months after we got married. Then another boy just about five years later. Was living in Baton Rouge by then and doing the lawyer thing. Both my parents are still living and they are doing well and live in the same house we grew up in. My brothers are doing well. My children are healthy and doing well in school, although Lee High is not in the cards for them, or anyone else for much longer it seems. My wife and I enjoy each other's company still and spend our spare time together. Life is great for us and I hope it's going well for you too.
