Thanks to everyone who has worked on or contributed to this website. I've really enjoyed reading all the info and looking at the photos. Unfortunately it's looking like I'm not going to be able to make it home for the reunion. I'm not going to say it's a definite "no" yet, but it's not looking good at this point.

Anyway, I went through some boxes this past weekend and found some old photos and newspaper clippings. I'll post some on the site, and I'm overnighting a CD to Jack Baker so he can bring it to the reunion. I think you'll get a kick out of seeing some of these. I have several original school photos from kindergarten of some of you. I have 5th grade basketball photos, DNA cookie photos from Mr. Mattingly's Biology class, crazy day photo from 7th grade, etc.

Since high school, I've lived in Missouri twice, Illinois, Oklahoma, Colorado, and I now live in the Boston area, and have been here since 1997. As some of you know, I was married during our 10 year reunion. I've been divorced since 1995, and I'm still single with no kids... just my dog. My parents are bummed that they have no grandchildren and mom tells me I'm just too picky. I'm still hopeful that I'll find the right person someday, and that when I do I'm still young enough to have a kid or two.

I hope neither Amy Steiler (Roser) nor her husband are offended that I posted a photo with her, but it's actually the only picture I have of my old MG, so I couldn't resist. Still love my cars today. That's my mom in the background with the camcorder during a trip out to visit me. The other photo was from Clearwater Beach, FL this past summer. I'll try to post some other photos off the CD on the "Photo Album" page of the site.

I hope to see you all soon... if not at the reunion, maybe when I'm home visiting my grandmother, who is still in Carmi. By the way... thanks Bruce, for taking such good care of her! I know she can be a demanding customer. My parents and I really appreciate it.

Finally, I know it's a little late, but here are some people that were in our class at one time, and then moved away at some point before HS graduation. Don't know if anyone knows where they are today, but even if they can't make the reunion, I bet they'd love to see this site:

Steven Lies, Mike Franklin, Mark Ramsey, Shane Gray, Mary Cutchin, Steve Richard
