Comments:

After those glorious days at East, I went to the U of U and graduated. I went back to school immediately and got my masters in Special Ed. I met Robb at the beginning of college and we were married after I graduated and he had gone off to Dental School at Georgetown University in WDC. We lived there for four years and both worked for Sen. Jake Garn. I did computor entries and he was a senate page everynight after school. He ran the elevators. Way back then they were manual. Way Back Then!!!! I also taught special ed for Fairfax County.
We then joined the Navy and moved to San Diego. One year out of the three we spent in Okinawa, Japan. We had our first born...Taylor, "made in Japan," like everything else.
We finished our last year in San Diego with the Navy and then moved back to Richmond Virginia where Robb specialized in endodontics. (That is brain surgery on a tooth incase that doesn't sound familiar to you)
We spent two years there and had another boy, Jordan. We moved back to Salt Lake in the same neighborhood as Bill Larson and Jim McCullough. We have been here ever since. We had three more children, Warner, Eliza and William.
We also helped raise our great niece Caitlin. It was nice to have two daughters with all those boys around. Then we took in JR, our Hawaiian boy. All are married now, except our Rock Star.
We have loved travelling, golfing, biking, boating, skiing, and snowmobiling, which is Robb's greatest passion. I am a good sport cause it is so dang cold!!! Yellowstone is our January trip. Most people go in the summer, but not us. We pack up the winter gear and trailor the snowmobiles up in the dead of winter.
So now its 2019 and a little updating is needed. Everyone is married but our oldest Taylor. He is in a band ROYAL BLISS and travels all around. He has a great girlfriend and a six month old baby Nellie that we adore. The rest of the grown kids are married and we have 16 grandchildren. Five babies came along in six months. That keeps me busy! Life just keeps going and going, but I still feel like I'm literally YOUNG still til I look in the mirror. Yikes.....whos that?

I an so glad you are coming to the reunion. You are coming from a long ways! Gosh the years have gone by. Thank goodness we will have name tags with our old high school photos or I don't think I would recognize anyone. I'll look for you!

Kristi - I was so sad to hear about your John, I am so sorry. Way to young to leave, but we don't have much to do with timing. You have a darling family and grand kids. They will keep you busy I'm sure. Can't wait to see you at the reunion coming up so soon.
