Jon's Story

Life I'm very into gadgets, electronic or otherwise. I'm about to take up radio-controlled planes and copters. I really don't know how friends would remember me. I was kind of a goof-off, but tried to be loyal to people and be there if they needed. Because I was pretty active in SHS, I met a ton of people with different interests. Between band, drama (the stage kind, not my own:)) and trying to enjoy my favorite time in life, I kept busy. If there was one person from the past I would most want to see, I'd have a problem coming up with just one. But there is one person I was friends with from second grade thru high school - Karl Kuss. The person I know the longest is Mark Werner - we were born in Oak Park across the street from each other. Neither of them I can find. I try to do at least one community thing each year. This year I'm not sure what to do yet :) The protection of animals is very interesting to me and I support a couple of places including Best Friends out in Utah. It's the largest no-kill refuge in the world. I went there and spent some time and have to say, if it wasn't in the middle of nowhere, I'd probably try to get work there training dogs. In the past year I started taking more time to find friends I used to know and still remember. My Home I moved to Atlanta in 1980 to work with my folks in a fa...Expand for more
mily business. Hated it! So I changed gears,but stayed in ATL. I love Atlanta, but then I think there's several places in the states I'd like to live. I have my first house - I've been an apt. and condo dweller since coming here. I'm into pets - have no kids. Things like the house, volunteering and visiting with family and friends keeps me pretty busy. I do remodeling in the house and just finished a major re-do that took way to long, but I love the outcome. My Job I was laid off from Lanier after almost ten years as a networking and business machine systems instructor for the sales people. Shortly after, I worked at Philips designing web based training. I also work on the side installing and supporting networks for small businesses and home users. I have my own company doing in-home dog training. I think I like pets better than people :) College College started in OCC and then at Lawrence Tech. I left LT to move to ATL. After working for about eight more years, I finished school here at Kennesaw State University. I finished with a B.B.A in Management but I like non-management jobs better. I've been a public speaker and technology instructor for many years and really love the diversity my company offers. Workplace I go to family homes and help them relate and train their dogs. It's a very interesting and fun life.
