What is your fondest memory of high school?:  All of my great friends whom I love to this day, Friday nights at Alpine Ice Arena, Thelma Lou Club, Eros Arrow, Theola Jennings' typing class, Southmoor Park and parties, parties, parties (couldn't I have been a better student instead?).
From Jerrie:
I live in Stapleton with my dog, Hootie, a beautiful Akita.  I've been married, divorced, have had a few careers - and it feels like even a few lifetimes!  I LOVED seeing everyone at our reunion!  Since then I have lost 55 pounds - yeah!! and yes!!!  And, on a sad note, my beautiful doggie passed away on December 20, 2008.

From Greg:
Wow. I can't believe all this time has passed so quickly. Eilene & I were married 29 yrs ago and what a ride we've been on. From Colorado to Utah to California back to Utah to Texas to Florida back to Utah. We were blessed with a great son 26 yrs ago and now he's grown and we're expecting our first grand daughter in October. Eilene is the love of my life and we just have a blast everyday. After all isn't life meant to have fun? Can't wait to see everyone.

Our little Cambria Autumn is almost 10 months old now and is such a cute little girl. She's always on the go and only has 3 gears. Eat, go and sleep! She's a handfull but well worth it. My day begins by clicking onto my sons blog and viewing her short little videos and it just sets the mood for the day. Being a grand parent is the BEST!

What is your fondest memory of high school?:  The thing I remember most fondly is being young and foolish and using that as an excuse to get away with so much! My friends, the discovery of new things, and the music made these really fun years.
From Bill:
Wow! 35 years went by so quickly. A short summary would show 1 wife (the love of my life!) 4 kids (28, 26, 14, and 12). Four jobs in the computer industry with 20+ years at Apple in sales management. Home has been the Phoenix area for the last 21 years. Still love music and still working on my golf game. I am a Regional Manger at Apple and travel 11 states in the west. My wife is a computer teacher at an elementary school here in Scottsdale. My oldest son and daughter are out of school and busy building lives of their own. My two younger boys (9th and 7th grade are home and driving us crazy like teenagers should. I look forward to retiring soon and starting my second career, whatever that may be. See everybody in August.

Marital Status:  Divorced
No. of Children:  1
What is your fondest memory of high school?:  My friends! I was a little shy in High School so I wasn't involved in alot of TJ activities but now that I'm semi normal I would love to go back and do it all again.
From Katie:
After college at CU (what fun!) I moved to LA with Robin Rice and Judy Henderson.  Robin and I shared a two bedroom apt for $350 above a liquor store (but one block from the beach) in Manhattan Beach.  After that I was chosen to fly to Paris to work as a fashion model and that was an amazing experience. I worked all the big fashion shows at the Pret a Porter, was filmed in front of the Eiffel Tower and Champs Elyse, Tuileries gardens and many other famous landmarks.  When I got home from Paris I got a job in the film business working as an administrative assistant and worked my way up to a producer in 4 years.  I was also called on to do "Real People" casting and I traveled all over the country casting and producing national TV commercials for some of the top award winning directors in the business.  I finally got married in 1991 and promptly had a baby boy.  He is a gorgeous & funny and a wonderful son.  I have been single for 14 years while I raised my son, but I think I might look into dating now that he is living his own life and it rarely includes me!!  I worked in the faux finishing business for 2 years but injured my back and had to take a couple years off to recover.  Now I am 53 years old, free and single and ready to start the 2nd phase of my life and I am open to just about anything.  Anybody have any great ideas?  (And no Michael Frazin I will not come to Ohio to serve pancakes!)

I can't believe it's been 35 years! Surely, we're not that old!

In fact, the two younger ones also graduated from TJ - as well as our twin nephews (super students/athletes) in 2008. We've got the country covered! Life is good!
