Married in September 1967 while my husband was attending Arizona State University. Upon his graduation we moved to Houston Texas in June of 1968. I worked at the Bank of Texas as a commercial loan teller for 4 years. I retired in 1972 after the birth of our daughter Sheridan. In 1975 we has a son Christian. I love being a stay at home mom, what with all of their activities all the years. Both our children live in Houston and have never married, maybe someday soon. Sheridan graduated fro the University of Mississippi in 1997 and spent 8 years working in Atlanta before moving back to Houston early this year. Christian graduated from Baylor University in 1999 and has worked in Houston since then. My husband, Hank, spent 34 years as a banking and lending company executive in Houston before retiring in 2002. During those years we were able to travel extensively and enjoy our family and friends, which is what we continue to do now. My life has been blessed.

I'm now glad I was one of the youngest members of this class! Haven't been to a reunion since '75, when I was "pregnant". Everything was so "serious" in high school! Funny! Commercial world belongs to the "young, thin & blond", but as I sit on my deck watching Ray, now 60, unload wet/noisy grand kids off the sailboat and hear their laughter echo in the woods, I LAUGH OUT LOUD. Cause the "real world" belongs to the AARP crowd! (that would be us) We're old, not dead!!!

Ray & I are still married-to each other-39y! He retired in '98 (30+ yrs-Safeway-architect), so after 18 yrs in Oregon, sold our properties in Oregon & the bay area & moved to N. Georgia to be near Grand kids. Major move! Bought 25 secluded acres in Blue Ridge Mountains, at southern end of Appalachians, by Blue Ridge Lake. Beautiful Views! Ray designed/built a 4700 sq ft cedar log home, barn, greenhouse, lots of furniture-an incredible craftsman-my mountain man! Took 2+ yrs! It's perfect for our controlled chaos- Boss Babe, 15 yr old cat, Ray's Wimeraner, Annie, my Shih Tzus, Smoky & Sassy, Big Bird, an African Gray & 7 grandkids. Kids favorite thing is to swim in our pool, stay up half the night looking thru all of Grandpa's telescopes & EAT! Our 3 kids grad. college-all more than once! Wes, 37, VP Southern Health Partners, lives close with Amy, Stock Broker, & Seth, 13, Jordan & Taylor, 11(identical twin girls), Heather, 35, Certified Neuro & Certified Critical Care Nurse, is Trauma RN-LifeForce Helicopter on Sat & Sun, lives close with Charlie, Chemical Engineer, & Savannah, 8, Mackenzie, 7, Cameron, 4 & Garrett, 9 months.(finally had a boy!) Celeste, 29, attorney in Portland, OR and Aaron, attorney­newlyweds! All are wonderful Christian adults­one thing we did right! Wes came south on full-ride baseball scholarship and "stayed." Heather, at 6'2", played college basketball, ended up at Emory in Atlanta and "stayed." Never figured we'd leave the west! But love our grandkids!

Ray's an architect for historical restorations for last 2 yrs, does 1-2 projects a yr. Thanks to him, I do what I want. Left PT&T in '75 after Celeste was born. Studied Chinese cooking with Sheung Woo in San Fran! Ray took 3 yr. transfer to TX in '77 ­ Got my Masters at Baylor in '80 & moved to Oregon. I've had fun ­ Lots of Theater, sung in groups/radio commercials, owned restaurant, ran B&B at our historical home in Oregon on weekends10+ yrs. Became Licensed Clinical Social Worker '84-worked with abused children. Did grant writing. Moved here-taught grant writing at UTC-5+ yrs ago went back to my passion, "children"-now LCSW Consulting Therapist, do therapeutic crisis intervention, abuse recovery work and evaluation & treatment for youth in foster care program. Serve on Foster Care Review Board for 4 counties in TN & GA. For 20+ yrs have volunteered as Court Appointed Special Advocate, representing abused/neglected children in court. We work "off the mountain" out of our place in Ringgold, GA 2 days a wk and never work in the summer. The rest of the time you'll find us in Blue Ridge, playing in dirt or getting wet! However, I own a clown suit and do all the voices for my 15 puppets. Grandchildren think I'm crazy! I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

Out west often. Ray's parents died in '82- left him their house/90 ac.vineyard between Healdsburg & Ukiah - it's leased to Catholic diocese, "per their will" until 2007 ­ yes, church wine! His parents taught in Catholic School for yrs. We'll sell it in '07. I always wanted to live there, but Ray doesn't like the hot summers. Hunt deer/elk-any western state we can get drawn in - did muzzle load elk hunt in New Mexico this past year with our son. And LOVE salmon fishing in the Pacific Ocean. Actually, love fishing anywhere!!!

Member Georgia Women's Flyfishing Assoc., Master Gardener, love gourmet cooking & baking, southwestern art, southern literature, sailing and swing dancing! Go to Italy ea yr since '96 with best friend of 39 yrs from Anderson, CA. We lost 2 friends in '96 & did something wild & went to Italy for a month-Ya Ya Sisterhood Pity Party- now a positive thing! '04 took 3 older grandkids on tour of national parks in our motorhome. Made us old! Also love Race for the Cure ­ for my baby sister - breast cancer at 35 ­ she's a survivor. We run for her and we run with her! Both sisters live close. Fun!

Love our church. Both deacons, I'm one of 2 women deacons in our church. Ray is Dir. of church Media Center/Library. Both active in anything musical. Collectors of art-books-music, it consumes us. A sickness! Have home library & music room, complete with 3000+ albums-lost count on CD's. Threaten Ray with divorce if he gets another guitar-telescope-music-he says the same to me over Doolittle's-O'Keeffe's- pottery-cookbooks! 2people2gether2long2much stuff!

We're living God's Plan. Our life hasn't been without pain, but the good always outweighs the bad and we never look back. We are blessed. Email us at rbwmson@bellsouth.net. See you in 2015?

Hello to all,
We will be attending, Mike & I are still married after all these years(2/5/66). Two sons, one in Eagle Point, OR. married (Tony & Tonya Sowles) one grandson (Jackson), one son living in Red Bluff (Pat) with my dad.
Mike & I are retired but busier than when we were working. We play a lot of golf, work in our yard, travel, etc. I paint a little, do crafts, play bridge, am a Rotarian, and work on several community activities.
I would be happy to help with decorations. If you just tell me what you are doing I can either pick-up the materials from you or pick-up the materials here and make them up in advance and bring them down.
I have an extra 1965 yearbook if anyone would like a replacement. It is one that my folks got for advertising. I also have a 1964 one.
I am looking forward to seeing everyone.
I saw Jerry Belcher at an Oregon State football game. You might find him through their alumni association. Alice & Woodrow Wilson (Doug's parents) live in Los Molinos. They are friends of my dad's. He can give you their phone number(dad's number 527-3942)and they can give you the scoop on Doug. The last time I saw Darlene Salnick (Christianson) she and Dale were living in Salem, OR. I looked them up in the directory but they aren't listed. I'll see if I can track down some others on you list.

I moved to Ireland in 1999 and live in County Clare high on a hill in a rural area. I intend to make Ireland my home. I run a small quilting business, participating in craft fairs, teaching quilting, and taking orders for custom products. I also operate a lending library out of my home for neighbors and friends. When I first came to Ireland as a tourist in 1986 I felt like I had come home, that I had finally found a place where I felt like I fit. And no, I don't have Irish ancestry. I married in 1970 and had 4 children. My oldest child, Michael, was shot to death in 1995 when he was 24. That was about 22 months after my divorce. When my last child started college, I moved here. I come stateside once each year to spend time with my children, oftener if there is a particular need. My older married son is an art director for the NFL, the son who is getting married this July is a film editor. My daughter is preparing for a nursing career. My father died in 1999 and my mother last July. I am happy living here and am grateful that I could begin life again in such a peaceful and beautiful country. I am active in my parish and in the Quilters Guild of Ireland as well as a county-based textile workers group.

myinfo: I am an Army reservist who is currently on Active Duty for Operation Iraqi Freedom. I am fortunate right now that I am stationed in El Paso, TX.

I have three children. My son is 31, and I have a daughter who is 29 and one who is 21. They are healthy and doing well in their careers. Unfortunately only one lives in Albuquerque. My son is in Oregon and my youngest daughter is at Indiana University. I also have two granddaughters ages 8 and 5.

I enjoy and do a lot of traveling. I also enjoy crafts, hiking, gardening, reading, computer games. I like to run and have entered a few races. I am very slow but it is a lot of fun!
