Fondest Memories of High School:
My fondest memories are made up of the relationships that developed with friends,
classmates, and team mates that I met and connected with during my time at North.
| Comments (since
graduation):
Following graduation from North, I attended ISTC where I
participated in football and baseball, and made friendships that continue to this
day. | Most
significant happening in my life?
In October of 1984, while
living in Southern California, I met and married the wonderful wife I am married
to today. Also significant has been the birth of my five wonderful children. Sad
time occurred a couple of years ago with the death of my youngest son, Shawn,
who died in an auto accident two days prior to his 44th birthday. Happy times
and sad times, but all significant. | |
