Richard's Story

Life Left school before Graduation. Living in Atlanta area for the past 33yrs. Married 46 years on August 26th, 2013. 2 daughters 6 grand-kids 3 boys 3 girls And one GREAT Grandson. And one Great Grand daughter Retired. Like to hear from old friends and classmates. Also having a great time getting reacquainted with my dearest friend from the "OLD" days and making new friends along the way, just an absolutely great experience. Just thought I'd add a note on here about how much fun we had at the Hickory Hill Reunion, in June 2002. I have never had more fun and I intend to do it again in 2005 so everyone be on the alert sometime at the end of 2005 or beginning of 2006 for more information on doing the reunion one more time. Also I have recently lost 150 pounds in the last year and a half. My health is also on the rebound. Recently I have been doing some projects around the house to try to get back into the work force one day soon. In 2004 I remodeled my Basement and Changed three unfinished rooms to five finished rooms, where we now stay 90% of the time. Now I'm making furniture and redoing my 1993 Ford "T" Bird. First having Maaco paint the outside then I am painting everything inside. Also changing the interior out by installing custom fit seat covers and new carpeting on the floor. This summer (2005) My oldest Grandson and I intend to custom build a 1966 Chevelle SS396 if we can find just the right kind of body. Not too dented and either with or without an engine. Well, here is an update for 2010. My health took a dramatic turn for the worse. I recently had a heart attack and double Pneumonia and came as close to dying as I have ever been. I unfortunately gained back most of that 150 pounds I lost in 2003 & 2004. I gained back 100 of the 150 due to a lot of circumstances. All medical. I recently had my 18th operation and tomorrow April the 8th I will have my 19th the last two being cataract surgeries. But I'm now trying hard to get back to where I...Expand for more
need to be even though I still have other health issues to deal with before going full force into a weight loss program where I work out a lot more than I have in the past few years. All I can do right now is portion control, not so much of the exercise other than my treadmill. But I WILL succeed, I'm too stubborn not to, LOL!!!!! Even though everyone said they had a great time at the Hickory Hill reunion in 2002 the second try to do it one more time in 2005 or 2006 didn't work out. Why I don't know. We had some interest but not enough to pull it off in the way of costs. Too bad since we have lost a few since then and it would have been nice to see Jim Doherty and a couple of others before they passed. We even lost one man (Ken Wall) three days after the end of the reunion. And of course we also lost Carl Michalak about three month's later. Hopefully this finds everyone doing well and living life to the fullest. We are only here for a short period of time and we should not have too many days where we aren't enjoying life...................I do EVERY single day of my life, no matter how I might feel!!!!!! New update as of August of 2011. Another heart attack has interrupted my life in just a small way. Thankfully I had a defibrillator installed back in 2010 when I had my heart attack back then. The pacemaker/defibrillator restarted my heart and I am fine now. This happened back in mid May. So now it's back to basics in my exercise routine because that is what I was doing when it happened. No new additions to our already large enough family. We (Angie & I) are going to celebrate our forty-forth anniversary on August 26th. We will be going to our favorite Italian Restaurant with all of our "KIDS" that Friday night. I hope if you are reading this you are living your life to the fullest as I have stated before life is too short and we all need to have the best time we can while we are here. Don't hate any one especially any member of your own family!!!!!!

This is our humble abode as seen from outer space I don't know if this will work the same but on Google Earth you can scroll in for a truly good close up. We believe this was snapped during the winter maybe around Christmas

And the winner is ..............me of course. What's funny is how thin I was in those days. Now I'm about two hundred pounds heavier. But 50 years older too.
Great news woke up at 5:30 and turn the local news and hear we are now under a winter STORM WARNING. Geez, two years in a row. Maybe the Florida Keys would be far enough South to stay warm, but then there is hurricane's in
