From Dru:

Ron Ferguson and I have lived in Amarillo,TX. for not quite eight years. I drive to a small town, Hereford, twice a month to conduct services on Sundays. I am involved with Amarillo's Downtown Women's Shelter as a volunteer. And I enjoy free time and meeting with friends for lunch. Ron's headmaster at an Episcopal school here -- that's what brought us here. Believe is or not, we love the big sky and enjoy the small city. (We lived in Dallas for too many years!)

I got my BA and MEd from Arizona State at Tempe and my MDiv. from Seminary of the Southwest in Austin, TX.

We have one son who is married and lives in Chicago. We also have two rescue dogs and a cat that has found us. All in all, life is good!

From Carole:

Those of you who knew me in high school, knew me by another name which was Gail Thuline. I legally changed it when I became widowed in 2006 and gave myself the first name I've always wanted. The last name was a no-brainer...it is happy and unlifting.

And that is where I am in this chapter of my life. I finally know what I'm going to be when I grow up. I am a healer and will open my own business in January called Radiant Heart Energy Works. The modality is Reiki. This is my 'retirement and my joy.'

The other part of my life was good too. Two marriages, three children and eight grandchildren and too numerous to count cats and dogs. Life is good as I've survived two rounds of breast cancer and am currently in remission.

It will be good to see you again and to hear your life stories if you want to tell.

From Jeanne:Hello, gosh, this is great of Jim and Bradley to put together :)
What can I say, I was a housewife, mother of three, helped raise our grand-daughter and divorced after 41 years of marriage. My children have all done well and my grand-daughter and great-grand-daughter live next door to me. Life is good.

From Virginia:I have lived with Tom Moylan for many years. We met in graduate school, where we were studying anthropological linguistics and we did field work in Papual New Guinea together. We left anthropology to take up jobs in technology in the '80s. We are both now retired, and are dividing our time between our NYC apartment, our house in the Catskills outside the city, and our home in Gig Harbor.
My daughter, Christa Faust, is a writer and author of the Edgar-nominated Money Shot, and the forthcoming sequel, Choke Hold.

From James: Fifty years since graduation!! However, I look back to the 10^th year after graduation when I finally came to that culmination of what I wanted to do with my life. Those earlier ten years entailed four years of university undergraduate work, almost three years of graduate work plus three years in the U.S. Army. In 1971 I started what would be just over 26 years with the U.S. State Department. Processing visa cases, issuing U.S. passports, visiting Americans in jail, handling American death cases, and even evacuating Americans in crisis times filled my daily life. While my full-time profession life ended in 1997, the Department called me back in less than 2 years to work overseas part-time filling in during summer staffing gaps. One year turned into nine consecutive years of summer work in eleven countries. Even now, I continue to work part-time writing formal State Department immigration regulations.
Since 1997, I have served on a citizens’ advisory council and a non-profit foundation board for Northwest Trek Wildlife Park. Addressing local land use issues in the county also occupies much of my time.
I just completed 40 years of marriage to my wife Gayle, who somehow puts up with my need to keep up an active ‘public advocacy’ life. Three great kids and now three grandchildren seem to compete for my time – but they always win!
As we head into our 50^th class reunion, I must say that working on the reunion committee has been ‘a ball’. The committee works hard, but we truly enjoy the shared closeness in making the reunion a memorable one for all.
