Donald's Story
Attended Proviso H.S., now Proviso East, was involved in basketball,football and baseball. Ran Cross Country. was associated with a great group of classmates; unfortunately I failed to maintain contzact with any. Went into the Air Force prior to graduation ; becasue of personal reasons / concerns. Some of the people I can remember are; John Baumgartn, Lowel Nourtz, Ronald Barewald, Lee Stang, Ray Niitchkie,. Tony Zitto, Karen, whoes Dad was couragious enough to let me drive his car for a School dance. Darlene, Barbara Hickman, whoes Dad was associated with HInes V.A Hospital. Most of all Donna, who I was luckey enough to have as a girl friend. I think of her often when I look back at my tiime at Proviso.
I entered the Air Force, even tho Coach Andy Pupils(...Expand for more
?), Varsity Football Coach tried his best to discourage me. I don't regret the move; becasue I finished school and went on to college. However, I do regret not continuing friendships with some very special people and. good friends'
I was very active in Varsity Sport thrpoughout my Air Force career; especially in the U.K. where I played football, baseball and fast pitch softball. I was assigned to Special Service and traveled Europe. I also participated in Turkey, Wasington D.C. and Florida.
I lived at 1832 10th Avenue, Maywood, Illinois. My friend's, John Baumgarten and Barbara Finger lived close by.
I retired from the Air Force in 1976, and went to work for the Navy, as a civilian; retiiring from civil service in 11997.
I would love to hear from my friends.
