ssional career. Blessed with good fortune during my entire life.
Retirement is easy with which to get accustomed. I think I am beginning to like it.
Times have been good more than bad during the last 55 years. Being married to a really fine woman makes a good deal of difference. Have also met a good many friends in my lifetime. Have much for which to be thankful during my years.
Virginia High was a great place to attend and to learn! only wish I had applied myself more! I did enjoy my years there and still keep up with many graduates/friends. Teachers such as Coach Jennings and Coach Curcio inspired and encouraged many to do their best and to lead a good life. Look forward to our next reunion and to seeing good friends.
