Kenneth's Story

Life After leaving Kenova, I was stationed at MacDill AFB in Florida for 3 years and decided to stay. Married Nancy Clarkson and lived in Florida for 30 years. We have two children, Stephen and Julie, and three grand children, Cassandra,Brandon. and Jack. GTE moved my Job to Dallas and we lived there for 5 years until I retired. We moved to Wasilla, Akaska and I worked for Alaska Communications Systems as their state 9-1-1 Engineer. Yes Wasilla is also the home of Sarah Palin... Our children and grandchildren moved to Alaska also and we really enjoyed the Alaskan Lifestyle. I retired from ACS in Feb, 2007 and started work with PlantCML as the South East Sales Engineer for their E9-1-1 suite of products. I left PlantCML in 2009 and am trying retirement. We moved in June to Greeneville, Tennessee into our new home. I also retired out of the Air Force Reserves with 22 1/2 years. Nancy and I are in good health and still going strong. Our son worked for the Anchorage NBC Television station in Master Control and the news departments Live Van and Satellite Truck. He has moved to Charleston South Carolina where he works for the NBC television st...Expand for more
ation there. Like most in the television industry he has moved around to Tulsa to the Fox news affiliate and now back to Alaska working for the ABC affiliate. Our daughter Julie is the Girl Scout district representative for the Mat-Su Valley of Alaska. Our granddaughter is 17 and our grandson is 14 and our youngest grandson is 6 years old. I still feel the same and my mind keeps telling me I am 20 years old, but when I look in the mirror I know that is not true. I hope everyone is doing well and would like to hear what everyone has been up to since I left Kenova in 1967. My Mother passed away October 9th, 2013 and my dad is still living with us.. My dad is 93. Nancy's brother David passed away last year. and she only has a few aunts and cousins left. My aunt Elizabeth Thacker passed away last summer and I would like to thank all of you who stopped by Rollins to pay your respects. I am still retired, but I an forced back to work as a consultant from time to time. I am also a volunteer for the Watauga Valley Railroad and have worked as a car host on their Powhatan Arrow Car (I used to walk under it while it was in the Kenova N&W Station.
