Russell's Story
Hey gang; Glad to see you are still kicking. Spent thirty years in the Navy after one year in college and retired as a US Navy Captain. Spent my whole career as a seagoing sailor and ended up as Captain of three different Navy ships. In 1988 I retired and started a business in downtown Chicago Illinois. Sold out in 1996 and Moved to Gulf Shores AL and became a ceramics artist which I am still doing. Married for 39 years with one daughter who lives in Wisconsin. We spend summers in our North Carolina home and winters down on the Gulf Coast. No more Western New York winters for me.. Along the way I also somehow got two Masters degrees despite my education at Corfu High School LOL. ...Expand for more
I still remember my baseball and football days at Corfu fondly, Especially when I pitched a one hitter against Alden and struck out 17 of 21 against Alexander in my Junior year. Those things stick with you. Was on riverboats in Vietnam in 68/69 and came home intact with two Bronze stars. Playing war as a kid paid off I guess. To all you gorgeous women in the class of 57, sorry I was so shy I couldn't tell you then or get up the nerve to ask you out, I actually blossomed a few years later and turned into a heartthrob. In my own mind at least. I'm sure my uniform had little to do with it.
