WAKE UP WORLD I AM STILL ALIVE, most said I would not make it until my 25th birthday, WELL, Where to start, Let's see, got married July 69, Had 4 children 2 girls and 2 boys, married 21 years, married again had 1 son. I also have 8 grandchildren, children ages 17 to 38. I am a single parent for 9 years now raising my now 17 year old John-Christan.
I have had a wonderful life, I have watched my children being born and watched one die as she took her last breath. Started working for the local McDonald's and stayed in the system for 28 years ending up in Odessa Tx and owning 4 restaurants. Got a crazy idea to retire at age 45 and move to the mountains in CO, just one problem at 8,000 ft, no oxygen, moved to TN, a wonderful state but not TX, returned June 06 after a freak accident, I rolled my surburban 3 times, breaking about every bone in my body, ( no, I was not drinking - gave that up 25 years ago, )
I have been so blessed, I have traveled the world, I have hunted & fished - (from, Canada to Cuba), skied -( from CO to the Swiss Alps ), jumped ( out of planes ), been to every kind of auto racing - ( all over the world ) Hitched hicked Europe for 3 months - played in a rock band 1966 to 67, called "The New Generation" , Preached in front over 3,000 and done Christian T.V., and in my 20's throwed out of a few country bars. Rode over 25 of the best wooden roller coasters in the world, Owned and restored chevy cars from the 50's. Roller bladed until I was 50, my t...Expand for more
hen 10 year old took me out, I don't know about you , but I do not bounce very well any longer. coached little league baseball and football, been to too many girls cheerleading camps, all this in my first 50 years, I plan on doing most of it again, well maybe I will skip the roller blading.
I now live back in Odessa TX where most of my children and grandchildren live.
I am now involved in getting the high school year books from the school I went to in Germany all put on CD's and on the web for all to see and use. They closed our high school on June 6th 2008. So we must perserve our history for other to see later in life. Update we have finished with the web site for germany except find 1 book 2003. Have now started one for KHS. Have 4 books on it to date,(3-3-09)update now have 1960 to 1981 Sr pictures on it...(6-02-09)
Finding and meeting so many from the 2 high schools I did go to... Killeen TX KHS with a huge grad class. Will try to find others to go to our 40th reunion on 09. also we have a all year reunion every three year in Vegas for all us Brats to go to. Have missed the first few but will make the June 09 one...
What a great life, would do almost all of it again...
Don't get me wrong, It has not all been perfect. I guess we all have had our ups and downs. I just enjoy all the ups too much to dwell on the downs.
Come on now, each of you tell your story. I hope to see many of you at either Vegas at our all class reunion for Wurzburg Germany or our 40th reunion for the class of 69 in Killeen TX.
How do I hope people remember me.
As a person that was willing to take chances.
Be there for freinds when needed.
As a good Dad most of all
