Mike's Story
Well I am a retired Director of Human Resources for an international chemical company. I have 5 children. Looking back, I think that our generation did more to "push the envelope" than any other. We pushed for 18 year olds to get the right to vote, Viet Nam, music, women's rights...and a lot of others.
I spent 8 years in the military 3 of them overseas.
I miss the days of Majestic Heat. I still play my horn and sit in with a couple of bands from time ...Expand for more
to time.
I guess at this age its easy to wax philosophical, but family and friends tend to mean a lot more when your life slows down. I couldn't wait to get out of DeRidder when we graduated but now I realize that it wasn't such a bad place after all. Hopefully my friends and classmates remember me as a good guy. I have nothing but good memories of all of you.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it!(LOL)
Best Wishes to Everyone
