Where have you been? and what have you been doing? - - - family, school, career, pastimes, good times, etc.

After graduation, began working for Franklin County Clerk of Courts, and then was drafted into the Army and was stationed in Panama for two years. During this time married Carol Foerst from our class, but divorced after service. Met up with another classmate, Toni Fitzpatrick and were married for over 49 years until her passing in 2020. I had a 28 year career as a Columbus Firefighter/Paramedic followed by a 16 year career with Bexley Schools...Toni and I raised two sons who still live in Pickerington. Have been residing in Canal Winchester for the past 16 years. Over the years had two rounds of cancer and two heart attacks, but all is stable with no current issues. Enjoy golfing as I live on a course, and vacationing in Ft. Myers Beach whenever I can. Now currently in a relationship with another classmate Terri (Phalen) McSchooler and enjoying each others company....Hope all is well with others in the Class of "66"...
