Ron's Story

Life Hopefully, you can still recognize me after not seeing me all these years since graduating from Abington. This is another photo of myself with my daughter taken just a few years ago . After graduating at the very bottom of my class in 1969 I was accepted to Valley Forge Military J.C. in Wayne, PA, the only college that accepted me. After graduation in 1971, I was then accepted for transfer to the only 4 yr. college that would accept me, Rocky Mountain College in Billings, Montana. That was how I wound up out here, to attend college. I graduated with a B.A. in Psychology and minor in sociology in 1973. I then went on to Eastern Montana College in Billings to do some post-Baccalaureate work in social science and Education. So although I did poorly in high school, I really made up for it later on. I met my future wife Cathy in College and we were married in October, 1975 in Billings, Montana, and instead of moving back to PA, we moved to Oregon in late 1976. I became an LPN in 1981 and Cathy is an Occupational Therapist. We moved to Tacoma, WA in the summer of 1990 after 14 years in Oregon.

e photo with me posted here. I have been working full-time at the same skilled Nursing facility in Gig Harbor, WA since May, 1992, and I have kept working towards my RN license, which I began in the fall of 1980, but still not there yet. We finally were able to buy our first home in June, 2002 in Lakewood, WA. My family is still living in PA and I miss them very much, along with the few good friends I made while at Abington and growing up in Meadowbrook. I have been on classmates since 2001 and a gold club member since 2003. I've been a runner since 1978 and competed in races for 20 years, and did some coaching from 1991-1999. I still run now and lift weights at the local YMCA. I would love to hear from anyone who knew me from Abington High and really wants to get back in touch again. And I'll guarantee you a letter back in return for your time.
