Bonnie Millhous:  

My dad was stationed at GFAFB most of my school-age years. My friends came and went as their fathers would get orders to move elsewhere. My fondest memories come from playing in the band, and softball in the summer. Some of my friends from Eielson Elementary I would love to reconnect with are: Timberly Adams, Tara Alessandri, Kim, Robin (saxophone player) Blake Evans and Trent (drum players) Trish and Angela (clarinet players), Bridgett Parker who came to Mr. B's class from New Zealand. When we were in elementary some of us went to the junior high to help their band because they were missing instruments in sections. At Twinning, my friends changed again. Sheri Good came and Stephaine Dixon, Liz, Kim. Valley was a hard transition to high school as we were bussed from the base into town. I made new friends there: Missy Jensen, and then on to Central High where my friends included Missy, Laura Phillips, Mike Loyland and Lew Radonovich, Andrea Berg and Deb. Most of the our free time was spent in band, and working on the newspaper or yearbook. I went to Macalester college in St. Paul, was lucky enough to study abroad in Moscow for 6 months my senior year. Most of my classes were in the Russian department, as was the last two years of my work study. I played varsity softball, mostly third base. Friends at Mac included Heather Freeman, Clarissa Hanks, C. Scott Cooper, Lisa Miller, Anna Leahy, Mandy Patton, Lia Gima, Rachel Gold, Jen Permann, Alex Dillon, Laura Adams, David E. Miller, and Greg Dale. Aga...Expand for more
