David's Story
Life
After 3 Years at WTHS, my family moved to the little town of Albany IL. I
graduated from Eire Community High School, after a year of doing nothing.
What a change from Waukegan! Well, I couldn't stay away from the
Chicago area, so I went to Illinois Institute of Technology. After 1 1/2
years full time, I spent another 7 1/2 years going to night school. But I
did it! After 9 years I received my BA in computer science. Since then I
have worked for United Airlines. Started there in 1978. Found my niche
in systems software. I've (mostly) enjoyed working there for over 24 years.
My title currently is "lead systems ...Expand for more
engineer - systems programming." That
and $.50 will get you a cup of coffee. I met the woman I love in 1980.
e were married in 1983. I decided to wait until I could get it right. Kim is
one of the best things that has ever happend to me. We have two kids,
one of each. David is now (2002) a junior at Prospect Hight School, and
Kate is in 8th grade at South Middle School.
I achieved the ultimate 1960's middle class dream. A house in the
suburbs, two kids, and at one time we even had a station wagon. Don't
forget the morgage and car payments. We're in hock up to our eye brows,
but we're living the American Dream!
