| Comment: | Just looking to catch up with folks and see what they have been doing for the past several decades!! After seeing all the interesting comments I thought I would add more details to mine. After Sylvania I went to Purdue and got a civli engineering degree. I worked for Lathrop, got married and had two great boys! The marriage did not last, and in the meantime Disney called while I was building a mall in Augusta Georgia, so I headed to Orlando and worked for Walt Disney Imagineering for 13 years! During that time I met my wife Karen at church, she had two boys as well, and then we had a daughter Besty! Five years ago Steiner+Associiates (ex-Disney) called and we deciided to make the move to Columbus based upon a better place to raise kids. Presently Cody, 23 graduated from BGSU, Cameron 21, is a senior at Purdue, Harrison 19, sophomore at the US Naval Academy, Jared 19, senior, and Betsy is a 8th grader. Doc Betsy's horse is 11 and doing quite well in the reining competitions. Look forward to keeping in touch with you over the years between re-unions! |

| Occupation: | Self employed: Marketing Communications |
| Comment: | Really excited about seeing my Sylvania friends again and reconnecting right where we left off..
After SHS — six years at Cincinnati helped me percolate through several majors including architecture, industrial design, and business, and taught me how to survive a weekend with only $12 in my pocket. Thank god for Pabst Blue Ribbon in quart bottles, you guys are great!
Ran out to Los Angeles just before college graduation for my last fling as a co-op student, and instantly feel in love with southern California.
But, before I really had a chance to settle into the California lifestyle, the east coast job market began to look better — so jumped on my bike (the kind with pedals) and rode to my first "real job" just outside Boston.
After this, it all starts to get blurry, but fast forward to today — still loving New England, run my own marketing communications company — and now have a wonderful family including my wife Lisa, and our two sons, Chase and Reed.
(We got a slightly later start than some, so our guys are just beginning 10th and 8th grades respectively. Which means saving for college tuition is still just a concept... can somebody help me here?)
We enjoy our country home just outside Boston, and have a Vizsla pup, and a barn cat named Max, and had up to a few years ago, 3 horses. Life is good.
Looking forward to seeing you all soon!
