I left McCook the morning after graduation for Denver. I moved in with My Aunt who was and continues to be an inspiration to me. She was so good to me. She instilled in me confidence and the drive that has endured with me to the present.
I married Judy my soul mate and life long advocate within a year after arriving in Denver. We just celebrated our 53rd anniversary. I loved McCook High and have always counted my blessings that I was able to grow up in McCook. I learned after moving to the city to appreciate what I took for granted while there.
I have been able to grow a nice business and when others have retired I continue to love what I do, with no plans to retire any time soon.

I regret I didn't maintain the friends I had while in high school. When you get married and are working so hard on your career you live a new and different life from your school days.
The basic hign moral standards with no drugs and the good example of my friends has served me well in my life.
I enjoyed so much the 50 year reunion. The parade was great and those hosting the get togethers and activities were great also.
I will be unable to be with you at this year's reunion. We will be holding a family reunion that we had already scheduled before reunion was announced.
