Jerry's Story
Life
After graduating from Niwot I went to CSU where I obtained my BS in Computer Science. I also married my high school sweetheart (Jeanine Smith) in 1981 and started my first real job (working for IBM) that same year. We have been fortunate to be able to stay in this same area our entire lives.
We have two children (Tiffany, Derek) both of whom are married and we are expecting our first grandchild this next year.

ith continued treatments they believe they can keep me upright for at least another 5 years. Don't wait to do the things that bring you enjoyment, you never know when you may not have the time to get them done!
We spend a great deal of time camping, ATV'ing. I also spend alot of time (she tells me too much) flying model airplanes.
I'm still working but thinking about hanging it up soon. Sometimes the financial aspects of life seem less important than they did years ago.
Living in the area I occasionally meet old classmates and enjoy hearing what has gone on in their lives over the last 30 years. Take care, Jerry.
