Michael's Story
Life
I am living in Newcastle, WA working as the Vice President Controller for PACCAR Inc a Bellevue, WA based fortune 500 multinational truck maker. I graduated from BYU in 1982 after serving a mission for LDS church in Japan. I was married in 1981 and recently celebrated our 25th Wedding anniversary.

ecently took my family to Great Falls to see where I grew up and I showed them Great Falls High. We saw Mr. Lucero and talked with him. He hadn't aged a bit it seemed! Everything in GF seemed sooo small! The new gymnasium next to campus is quite nice - compares well to some colleges. I was sad to see the smokestack gone, GF just isn't the same without it. Can't say I want to go back, but it was a neat place to grow up in many ways. I noticed how the kids still walk to school there. We just don't see much of that around here. I have talked to a few people from those days over the years, but have lost contact with almost all. That's life, you move on. I would be glad to hear from you!
