Rusty Davis:  

Life: Laurel Ridge: Like many, I was in the first class to go 1st through 7th grade at Laurel Ridge although we did start the year in classrooms at a church. Mrs. Dougherty aka Miss Willowby was my first teacher crush. Besides that Mrs. King made the biggest impact. I cringe today when people use bad grammer or misuse words. Druid Hills High: Loved it and hated to leave in the middle of my Junior year. Had a crush on several lovely ladies, some at the same time, and I refuse to state who they were. I may not be the brightest kid to attend Druid Hills but I'm not stupid. Football was my real passion in High School although baseball filled in most of the non-football time. Moved to Gahanna, Ohio in December, 1967. Gahanna Lincoln High: Tough moving in the middle of the year but spring baseball helped with friends. Summer at the pool and Miller's are two of my good memories. Shaving our heads for August football practice cannot be forgotten. Sharing the OCC crown was great. Going down on campus or to the Poor House in Reynoldsberg was also something to remember. 3.2 Beer - did we ever get drunk? On to West Point for College in July, 1969. West Point: Learned a lot, should have studied more, loved playing football, wish I hadn't had two knee surgeries. Really never got caught doing anything wrong. Had fun and would go there again if had to do over. BS Engineering; MA in Management Systems, Webster University 1986.
