Hi Steve, I just logged onto the reunion website for the first time and browsed through the pictures.  Pretty amazing!  I’m not sure if everyone has changed that much, or if my memory is worse than I thought, but I managed to recognize only a few people in the photos.  I checked out your website and am impressed.  Hopefully you will be at the reunion this summer, as I plan to be there.

 I wasn’t able to make the past few reunions and we already had some family stuff planned for those dates.

 I am living in Findlay Ohio (on I-75, 40 miles south of Toledo) and still work for the Social Security Administration, where I have worked since ’78.  Have 3 daughters: 25, 23, 20.  The oldest has been in Japan since 9/05 teaching English.  She will be home next October.  (she was a Japanese major at Ohio State). The middle daughter is an assistant editor for Seventeen magazine in Manhattan, and the youngest is in her 2nd year at Ohio State.  She managed to go to the championship game in Arizona this year, as well as the final four in Atlanta.  Too bad that we had to play Florida both times!

 Looks like I will probably work for about 3 more years (at least till the little one graduates)

 Well, hope to see you this summer.
