Stephen's Story
Life
I went to Sandberg from 1978 kindergarten to 1983 4th grade. My teachers were... I forget the K teachers name, Ms. Lawson 1st, Ms. Montgomery 2nd, Ms. Lawson 3rd, Ms. Mayes 4th. I played baseball every year I was there. I got along with everybody as I remember it. I hung out with Jason Jackson, Danny Alfred, Scott Young, Travis Perryman.
Of course there are more. I was head over heels for Nancy Foster. I used to hang out with Shane Morgan also, we used to sneak in to his brother's room and check out his album collection (vinyls, remember those). One time in kindergarten while a group of us were finger painting I convinced the group to paint our faces up like KISS. I got in a lot of trouble for that. My nickname that everyone called me was Okie. The summer between 4th & 5th grade I moved to Foyil, Ok. I went to school at Foyil from 5th thru my freshman year. I had a lot of good friends there. One of the cool things about small schools is that everybody knows everybody. So, in order to say who I'd hung out with there I would have to mention everyone in several classes, above & below. Ronnie Hedges was my closest neighbor/friend, so we hung out the most. But there were lots of others to: Travis Daniels, Tod & David Weisanbach, Allen McKellips, Mark Prather, as well as some of the girls like Leilani Smith, Melissa Stangland, Happy Minor, Cathy King. Like I said it was a small school so pretty much everybody. I've left out some names, don't take it personal. I remember just about everyone. After my freshman year I moved back to...Expand for more
Tulsa and went to E.C. with alot of the kids I went to Sandberg with. I made some new friends there also. Richie Rodriguez, Mike Powell, I started a band with Brian Eberle, Joey Trevino, James Korzelius, & Walter Tucker. Also Dave Weiland and that crew. From what I remember we had ALOT of FUN! Definitely more than allowed by law. During my junior year at E.C., me, Walter, & Andy Head were in a bad car wreck. I've been in a wheelchair since then. I can still move my legs & have feeling in them, but not strong enough to walk. I still believe it'll happen though. I had to take my junior year over, but had to change to Hale H.S. I had lots more fun. Oddly enough, I had more confidence with girls after the wreck, the band started to do well & my social life was at a breakneck pace for quite a while. I met Rochelle Collins, had some kids, got married (in that order to),then split up & got divorced. I have 2 beautiful children: Allison 16yrs & Brenden 14yrs old. They live with there mother. I live in Tulsa... still. I work at the airport, while I also attend school for ministry during the day. I teach, sing, & preach sometimes at my church. And thru the church I am on tv once a week locally, & also broadcast to Europe, Africa, the middle east, & Asia on TBN Nejat (which is Iranian for "salvation") reaching the world for Christ. Which, for those people who knew me in high school, is probably not what was expected of me. Anyway, I'd love to tell more but I'm running out of space. So, old friends & classmates I'd like to hear from you.
