2002 Class Reunion Biography

615 N. Linn

Iowa City, Iowa 52245

Birth Date: June 3, 1941

Retired from retail industry. 

I spent 17 years with Wal-Mart. I still work there part-time as a greeter. It is fun meeting people, and especially I enjoy seeing the class of 1960.

Hobbies:

Ham radio operator for many years but now have HUNG up the phone.

Walk around the malls and the city parks. In particular, the fall and winter months are a delight for me.

I am working hard to manage my health issues.

Trips:

I want to do some traveling and am looking for a travel partner.

City High Memories
:

I ran track and played baseball. Sprinting was fun, because the races were over so fast. Dick Corso was a good friend and friendly track rival.

I remember many after school pheasant hunts with Dave Bollei and Gary Carman.

I am excited about the prospect of seeing classmates at the reunion in September.
