Gary's Story
First, let me apologize for not remembering much about my experience at McPherson Park. I spent only one year there the first year it opened, and very few students chose to befriend me. I was at Burnaby South Elementary School at Sussex and Kingsway (I think).
In 1952, I left Burnaby when my parents and I emigrated to San Diego, California.
I attended San Diego High (1955), San Diego State University (1961) and spent 20 years in the U.S Air Force and attended the University of Southern California and Texas A&M University.
My wife, Sue and I celebrated our 58th wedding anniversary 2 February, 2016.

rnia admitted me on probation (despite terrible results on the GRE). As a result, I earned a MS in Systems Management.
After my retirement from the USAF, I entered Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas and earned a PhD in Adult and Continuing Education.
In May, 2015, my older grandson graduated from Texas A&M Galveston, Texas. He earned a BS In Maritime Technology and Engineering.
My oldest granddaughter will earn her Texas Aggie Ring in May, 2016. She will graduate with a BS in Microbiology.
Three other grandchildren are healthy and happy. Our two children (1 girl and 2 boys) are also happily married.
If any one has a clue about me, please let me know.
Two names I remember from grade school are Marilyn Fowler and Eileen Jang.
Garwood Hawks also was at Burnaby South.
