† Merry Christmas - Happy New Year!! †

Dear Friends.....this has been some year - hasn't it? I can't believe it will be the year 2000 in just a few days. I'm starting off the new year with a new job at a new law firm. I was employed for 12 2 years at the previous one! Onward and upward - right??? In March my father had open heart surgery in Lexington, KY. While I was there taking care of my Mom and Dad - I got to have lunch with Gene Holt. Fortunately, my father has recuperated quite well and is back to riding the countryside on his motorcycle. My daughter, Allison turned 30 this year. Now she is officially older than I am! She and her husband just moved into a new home in Jacksonville with their 4 little boys. My son Mark was stationed in Korea in the Air Force and returned stateside via Hawaii with a lovely Korean wife, Chong Ok. They are now stationed in Dover, Delaware and are expecting a baby March 7th. In July, my husband, son and I flew to San Francisco. We drove south to Pebble Beach and Carmel - then over the state to Yosemite National Park. What a beautiful place! We then drove to Lake Tahoe, then north to Chico - where I visited with an elementary school girlfriend of mine - then we went west to Ft. Bragg and Mendocino. From there we drove south along the Pacific Coast Highway finally ending up back in San Francisco where we spent the last 2 days of our week's vacation. Whew! I got to speak on the phone with David McDowell (who had just re-married) while we were in Lake Tahoe (he lives in Reno) and I talked with Gary Erickson while in San Francisco. My mom had her left knee replaced in July. She's doing OK and hopefully she'll be able to get up and around soon without any problems. We visited Mom and Dad for Labor Day and for Thanksgiving - Mom baked some goodies which are always welcome by me - especially her special pralines! Danny and I had our 21st anniversary in September. Our son, Kelly, is a Senior in High School and will graduate in May 2000. He will be going to Cancun for his Senior Trip! What's up with that? Last, but not least, my other son, Kyle and his wife just celebrated their 5th anniversary and both their little boys are healthy and very, very active. I hope you all have a fantastic Christmas Holiday and a Great New Year's Eve.

I don't know if we will have a Reunion in 2000- it depends on you. I don't think I will have any time off before June anyway with my new job - but anyone who wants the job of putting this together - contact Carole McRae Richards, Janet Francis Jewett and/or Karen Poor Peck. Their e-mail addresses are further on down in the newsletter. Your involvement will be greatly appreciated. Otherwise, keep me posted on what is going on with you. I'll try to keep you posted with any breaking news through e-mail. Take care,
Gloria, Danny and Kelly

E-mail addresses are listed on the page as well as biographies and personal notes and pictures. Thank you to all who have sent updates and suggestions. We have been working very hard to make it enjoyable and have received a lot of positive feedback, however, it is still a work in progress. We have also been contacted by a lot of people from classes who graduated after the main group (Classes from the >70's and >80's and 90's). This has encouraged them to create SEVERAL web pages of their own and to organize a few reunions. A lot of the old newsletters have been scanned and you can access them through the web page and you can also access some other websites created by some of you! Have fun! If the page is not updated by Christmas - it will be by New Years' Eve. I promise.....

+ NOTES FROM ALL OVER +

Here are some notes from a few of you that I either received via regular mail or via e-mail. I know you like hearing what everyone is up to. Enjoy...

"I am in the throes of trying to finish my masters paper by the middle of the month without simultaneously blowing the other courses I'm taking. Dru built us a new homepage to replace my pathetic one at school. I'm still plugging away in the doctoral program, trying to prepare a paper for publication and working to focus in on my research topic. I am continuing to be a research assistant on a computer supported collaborative work project involving physicists, chemists, medical researchers, and computer scientists. This project will last until at least 2001, so I guess that's what I'll be doing until then."

GUY BLAIR - Class of '65 guy.blair@intel.com Guy and Martha live in Beaverton, OR. Guy and family enjoyed a 7 day cruise out of San Juan in May and visited the islands in the Bahamas.

She has been enjoying her last year at Louisville H.S. Rachel is very active with basketball. I, of course, help out with the coaching chores. It is a pretty good thing for me, but time consuming, as you know. Rachel is trying to get into Louisville - she is really a live wire and very unpredictable! But cute and very warm. Moody though! Jared is trudging through 3rd grade. ... he is extremely bright and worldly (street sense). He's also an outstanding athlete. My teaching is going well. I teach 3 classes a day: split shift ... 9‑10AM, 1‑2PM and 7‑8PM...what a day! In between I pick up Jared & Rachel from school; study for my own schooling and maintain my book of clients (consulting & insurance). That's about it.... Oh Christmas (1998) at Sherry's house was neat and wonderful. Only one mishap in that Dad suffered a small heart attack while he was gambling at the Mirage. He spent a few days in the hospital in Las Vegas. Seems to be relatively OK now and is back in SA. Everything is pretty neat these days. I have moved - Our house is about 2 miles from the beach on the West side of the Santa Monica Mountains; about 4 miles from both Malibu and Santa Monica.

TERESA DeARZA CUSHING Class of '66 Cushing.teresa@epa.gov Jan 15, 1999 - Hi Gloria, You are to be applauded for all your good work and tenacity to keep this going all these years. You did not receive a Xmas card from me this year because I did not send one (not even one) to anyone. It has been such a busy year for us, we worked all during the holidays except the actual holiday and I just returned today from a two week executive course in Sheppardstown, West Virginia. Just to let you know there are five of us Rohawks meeting in San Antonio the second week in June. I have worked with Judy Minor to get this going (she did most of the work), I just helped her track down two of the people. Anyway, Carole O'Brien, Judy Minor, Jill Anderson, and Jodie Hargus and myself are spending four days together on the San Antonio River. It has been over 30 years since any of us have seen Jill and Jody so we are really excited. Jodie actually lived in Vegas the whole time I was there and I never had a clue. All is fine here. Pat Manganello (Fales), Jan Ownbey (Link) and I still try and get together as often as possible. CONGRATULATIONS to Teresa and Geoff - they will be getting married in Las Vegas on January 1, 2000!

EARL DODGION - Class of '63 dodgion@amigo.net Earl lives in South Fork, Colorado. His son Troy graduated from high school in May and is going to the University of Colorado in Boulder. His dental office has been busy. Unfortunately, Earl tore his rotater cuff in his shoulder chasing his son down a slalom course last spring and he'll have surgery.

LINDA EDGARIAN DENHAM 1/18/99 DEFTED@aol.com "I had met a fabulous fellow in 1966 ‑ 1968 at RAFB while I was singing with a folk song group in the building next to Chapel One. Earl Denham was a one man singing act there at the time. To make a very long story short, he left for the Vietnam War that was going on, and we lost contact for 30 years. In the summer of 1997, he told me that he had loved me for 30 years and he had been looking for me for years, and he finally found me on a computer one summer night while he was typing the final exam for a college course he was teaching ! He thought I was still married, (from when he had found out about me before), so he had a friend call me to find if it would be OK if he called to just find out if I was happy. We found that we both were divorced in 1995, that we both have two children about the same ages, (and the other countless similarities and unique happenings boggle the mind) and that we still had everything in common, as if the 30 years had been a blink of an eye. We are very happily married and have been so for a year and a half. When he found me, he had retired from the Air Force as a Major, and was working for the National Petroleum Refiners Assoc. in Wash, D.C. and living in VA. I lived in Austin, Tx. where I had been a school teacher for 25 years. He was in the process of taking the job to run the Fuel System for O'Hare International Airport in Chicago when we met again and got married, so Chicago is where we are at this time."

GARY ERICKSON - Class of '64 LOGOMORPH@aol.com Gary and his significant other, Rose, went to Utah where they launched their kayaks into the Green River and followed it for sixty five miles over a period of four days and ended up in Cody, Wyoming. They returned home through Yellowstone, into Idaho and Nevada and back to San Francisco.

MIKE FAUSETT - Class of '65 - Mike and his wife Diana were on the move again last year. They took their daughter, Shannon and her husband for a week in Maui. His group of guys went to Canada again for their annual fishing trip and are set to go again July 4th. You can see a picture of Mike and an anonomous fish on the web page.

MIKE FITZPATRICK: As some of you already know, Mike passed away in September in Los Angeles. I'm sure you join me in sending your sympathies to his family, Wife, Denise Etchemendy Fitzpatrick and their children, Billy 28, Teddy 25, Shannon 19 and John 15. Also, our prayers are with his brother, Bill and mom and dad Bill and Ruby Fitzpatrick.

JANET FRANCIS Class of '64 Jjewett@pdq.net Janet's moved back down to Houston - now she is closer to her sons and her grandbabies.

BONNIE HORNE McKEEVER - Class of '64 bonniem@ttsscpa.com Bonnie lives in Tulsa, OK. "Thought I would let you know I survived the "busy season" and actually thrived. Of course all I did was work seven days a week and nothing else got done. The night the tornadoes hit Okla City was a real thrill in Tulsa too. Our tornado was much smaller in intensity. Spent most of the night with the sirens going off and in my powder room on ground floor. I visited my dad in Norman last month and got a look at some of the damage. You couldn't tell what the buildings had been. Actually most of the area was just leveled. Nothing but streets and driveways. It did resemble the bomb site in many ways. My youngest, Paul, will be starting law school in Wyoming in the fall. Guess he just loves being poor and in debt!! His brother, Matt, is still here in Tulsa and takes good care of his mom. He's a nurse technician and works at St. Francis Hospital with the neurology department. My oldest, John, works for Gill Industries in Grand Rapids, MI as the IS person. He says he's the computer guy! You can imagine his distress at me not having a home computer, but I'm working on it as quickly as I can. Now if he and Amy would just get busy and have me some babies .......!!"

GENE HOLT - while I was visiting with Gene in Lexington earlier this year, I discovered that he had suffered a heart attack. He is doing well now. There are pictures posted on the web page of Gene and me.

KAREN KNOX -Class of '64 aqc3@msn.com Karen's son Joel is at Oral Roberts for Premed this year.

SUSAN LIVINGSTON JOHNSON - Class of >64 marykayangel@bwn.net and the web pages is: http://www.mkinet.com/14/sjohnson10.html Sue lives in Leadville, Colorado in a historic home built in 1888. Daughter, Amy became a flight attendant with United and is based in Denver. Her son, Mike is studying computer science and astro-physics at CU-Boulder. Sue has 20 months in with Mary Kay Skin Care and Cosmetics. She is doing this full time now and achieved Queen's Court of Sales and received a diamond ring at the seminar in Dallas this year. Her home has also been chosen to be in the Christmas Victorian Home Tour this year.

PAT MANGANELLO FALES - Class of '66 dfales@ix.netcom.com pat@patfales.com "Life is good in the Northern Virginia suburbs of Washington, DC...in spite of the antics going on in congress at the moment! We have a new grandson, Dylan Patrick, who is almost 8 months old. He has everyone wrapped around his little finger already! He lives in Richmond with his parents, our son and daughter in law, so he is only about an hour and a half from us. We go down to visit as often as we can...but it is never enough. Life in real estate keeps me busy. I now have a staff of 5 who work with me to take care of the administrative end so, even though we are doing a substantial amount more business, I am not totally crazed. I still love it ‑ every day is a new challenge. Can't imagine doing anything else."

DAVID McDOWELL - Class of '65 Clutchpapa@aol.com David lives in Reno, Nevada. He recently was remarried to Dianne - whom he met on the Internet! Their wedding pictures should be on our RHS Home Page. "Just wondering about the next big one coming up... 35 years... any plans yet?? Also ‑ just bought a new house recently in Reno"

CAROLE McRAE RICHARDS - Class of '64 carole.richards@usaa.com Carole lives in San Antonio and works for USAA Insurance. "The Reunion. Karen and I have been working on it when time permits. The first place we wanted to have the Reunion at fell through simply because of the huge cost of having it there. Tentative plans as they stand now are to have a simple dinner on Saturday night downtown on the river at one of the hotels or restaurants. That way after dinner and the business meeting, everyone can go and do their own thing. Friday night we thought we'd all meet up at a place called the Far West Rodeo for drinks, dancing, talking, etc. (We've lost our contacts at the base so we can't meet at the Officer's Club anymore) If the guys want to play golf, maybe they ( Mike Wysong, Tom Madsen, Jeff Lindley) can arrange something. We'll have more definitive information after the middle of January. We've tentatively picked the weekend of June 23rd‑25th, depending on availability of dinner places, etc. Let us know what you think. OK PEOPLE - write to Carole and tell her what you think. If you want a reunion this year then we all have to pitch in - contact Carole at her e-mail or write to her at: 14121 Churchill Estates Blvd., #301, San Antonio, TX 78248. "My daughter Laura is pregnant and due to deliver on or around December 27th. So my plane leaves here on January 3rd and I return to S.A. on January 16th. I'm looking forward to the trip. The sonograms show the baby to be a girl, so you know Mom and I are tickled PINK!! Of course, I've had to stop myself from buying everything I see. However, I have done some serious damage to my budget. Oh well, you only live once so might as well enjoy it while you can. My boss retired on October 29th and they gave me two new bosses to do the work of the old one. On top of that, they decided that we needed to move to consolidate everyone together, so this past week‑end we moved 50 feet (a chinese firedrill) and had to pack and then unpack. What fun!!! As of today, I'm finally unpacked and settled in kinda‑sorta. It will get better. Haven't found another position yet. Will have to delay my search until after I return from California. I know the right thing will come along at the right time., it always does. Mom and Dad are fine. Fat and sassy as ever. Both are excited about the new great‑grandbaby. All in all things here are fine, hectic but fine."

ART NIGRO - Class of '65 sbanigro@magna.com.au Art and his wife Sheila are still in Australia and are busy getting ready for the Olympics 2000. Please note the new e-mail address. Art is hoping to retire soon from the hotel business and move to Virginia and do some hotel consulting. Their daughter is engaged!

JUDY (O'NEILL) WOODRUFF (Class '64) SopRBronco@aol.com This year, I have joined the list of "empty nesters" and am loving every minute of it. They are always home‑‑so don't think you are ever truly an empty nester. Amy, 27, is now in cosmetoloy school and has two children‑‑Kayla, 7 and Christian, 3. Stacy, 20, is a junior at CU majoring in three biologies which I can't even pronounce. Future plans are vet school and Krissy, my youngest, now 18 is going to the University of Northern Colorado hoping to transfer to Colorado State Univeristy next year to be a part of the equestrian team. I think her major is "party". She is the horse lover and I am sure will always be. As for me, I am still in Franktown, south of Denver, on my little farm with 5 dogs and 5 cats and my tractor and still single. I ventured into the world of real estate and love it. This is a great location and the market is great. People are looking to escape from the city and enjoy the peace and quiet of country living. I am a big BRONCOS fan and got season tickets about 9 years ago. I blame the Ro‑Hawks for turning me into a football fanatic. Although, I don't know how you could live in Denver and not be a Bronco fan. I just started training for United and will have those wonderful benefits plus will have vacation time by then. Just let me know the week so I can bid the time. I am so excited with being back with the airlines. Have really missed the travel and atmosphere the airport brings. I am training for ticketing and gate agent. Have my schedule till December and can even go to six of the Bronco games. My PRIORITY!!! Have Nov and Dec with Sundays off. Girls are busy working this summer‑‑Krissy will be going to CSU next year and Stacy will graduate from CU. Can hardly believe that!!! I can't be getting that old.

PAM PRATT VILES - Class of '65 pviles@pdq.net "My elder daughter, Pippa, is getting married in August. He is a never‑married 32 year old Navy vet, whom the Marines are sending to law school. He graduates in May and takes the bar in July. Sometime after the wedding he goes to Quantico for six months and Rhode Island for three. Both are considered TDY assignments (although the Marines call it something different), so it is a bit unclear what Pippa will do during that time. After that he will join the Judge Advocate General's office, and she will be a military wife. As she is my stay close to home kid, this should be interesting. I find it difficult to understand her concerns, as I still think that when a light bulb burns out, it is time to pack. She, of course, grew up in the same house her whole life. Foreign concept to us, huh?????????" This past March, Pam and a few of her friends flew over to Sydney, Australia for a girls vacation. Luckily they stayed in the hotel that Art Nigro runs so they have an awesome time. Unfortunately, Pam lost her debit card to an ATM machine and got stuck in the hotel elevator. She had dinner with Art and his wife, Sheila.They stayed on the 24th floor with a spectacular view over the Harbour Bridge and the Opera house. They stayed in Sydney, Port Douglas and Cairns and had a marvelous time. I've posted pictures of Pam, Art and Sheila on our Web Page.

I was told about your site by Kerry Becker. I know lots of work went into it but thanks from all of us RoHawks. There could not have been a better place to graduate from than Randolph. Living on the base and going to school there was like being in a dream bubble so to speak! We all rode our scooters around going to the base theatre for 15 cent movies etc., the base snack bar for 35 cent hamburgers, up to the top of the Taj Mahal and out to the golf course for fun and games (riding the golf carts for $2 for nine holes ( when we didn't even play golf) while on the way watching the aircraft taxi by. Oh how those were the real days! Unbelievable!!! I will forever cherish those times! Thanks again, Go RoHawk Football!
