Gary's Story
Most of the class won't remember me since I used to ditch a lot (I mean a lot).
Since graduating, I somehow managed to spend enough time in classes to garner a BA from U.S.C. and an MBA from Troy University (coincidentally, both universities are know as the Trojans -- Go Trojans!). To complete my education and the professional accomplishments, I am a Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE).
After graduation, I worked for a CPA firm, but quickly learned that Public Accounting was not for me (the firm I worked for worked right up until quitting time on Christmas Eve with no party . . . this just wasn't me.
I had married a girl from the Canal Zone while I was stationed there in the military, so we returned to the Canal Zone where I spent most of my career working for the Panama Canal Company. After getting divorced in the Canal Zone, I married another girl from the Canal Zone and stayed married to he...Expand for more
r until she passed away nearly 3 years ago. We both retired from the U.S. Government (the Panama Canal Company was a U.S. Government Corporation).
We returned to the states in 1992 where we settled in Dothan, Alabama. About 2 years after I retired, I went back to work for Pemco World Air Services here in Dothan. I stayed with them until 2001 when I retired again to take care of my wife who was ailing.
Between my second wife and I we had a total of 5 children (she had 2, I had two, and we had one together). There are lots of grandkids but no great grandchildren yet.
I do a fair amount of traveling as my wife and I used to do. Now, however, it is mostly to visit friends and family which are spread far and wide across this great land.
Personally, I don't know about the rest of you, but I really find it hard to believe that it has been close to 50 years since we all graduated from Westchester.
