Barsha Baugh

Barsha Ann Baugh is no longer missing! I am currently residing at 1424 5th St., Kerrville, TX 78028. I would love to know about any future get togethers.

I am an ex-stewardess who lived for years in Alice Springs, Northern Territory, Australia, among a myriad of other locations.

I have one son who lives with his family in Rockwall, TX. I'll send a picture separately.

I would like to offer a brief update and greetings to friends from Princeton.

This is my fourth year as dean of the graduate school and my 32nd year as a member of the faculty at Princeton U. My wife, Priscilla, has taught Spanish in the Princeton regional schools since the mid-1980's and became supervisor of world languages two years ago.

Our two sons graduated from Princeton several years back - Bailey in 2001 and Daniel in 1999. Bailey spent a year with Princeton in Asia teaching English in Penang, Malaysia, before completing a MA in photography at NYU. He now assists Vera Lutter, who specializes in camera obscura, and just returned from a project in Venice, Italy, photographing the alta aqua. Daniel is completing his PhD in computer science at Stanford this spring and will begin a postdoc, probably in Antibes, France.

We currently reside in Wyman House, built adjacent to Princeton's graduate college in 1913 as the residence of the dean.

Well it's nice to know I've been "found". I have yet to receive any information through snail mail or email from Paschal so I'm not sure what it means. It was interesting for me to note than in the list of panthers being "searched" for that most of the people I hung out with were not listed. That included the valedictorian of our class Carolyn Terrell.

Does anyone have a year book? Carol Willits was listed. The last time I saw her was 1977 when I was down for a family visit with my 5 month old first born. She married Michael Absher in I think '68. I was in the wedding. They were still married in ' 77. That might help you find her though I don't think she still lives in Fort Worth. Some of my notables that were not listed: Jane Jenkins who married Scott Kee in ' 68,both ' 64 graduates, and Stormi Miles . Stormi married David Thomas in ' 68 as well. I was also in that wedding, as were my husband of 2 years and my three and a half year old sister. Because of my relationship with Jane I also knew Marialyce Morris.

I found out about the 40th reunion from Roy Martin, a ' 65 Paschal graduate, at my husbands 40th reunion, celebrated in Las Vegas, it seems to the chagrin of a few of his classmates from the Catholic high school in Oklahoma City where Steve graduated. Roy is married to one of my husband's classmates. It really is a small world.

A brief bio: Attended TCU part time after graduation. Attended NTSU next, marrying Stephen Edward Knezek in ' 66. Finally graduated from NTSU in January ' 69 with a B.S. in Education at 2:00 in the afternoon. At midnight we left for the east coast searching for adventure. Fell in love with Connecticut and felt like we were finally home. Taught school for 3 years postponing the adventures we had planned in Europe. Having made tenure in teaching I decide to quit, planning once again for adventure. Ended up postponing again to help Steve finish his first bachelors degree, also in education and because we became involved in the Catholic charismatic renewal in 1974. That lasted about 10 years during which time Steve worked in a hospital in psychiatry, got his second bachelors in nursing and we had two boys, one born in' 77 another in ' 80 and a daughter in ' 81.

I had spotty employment ,tutoring in the public schools, working in the afterschool program, less than a year in a for profit daycare a 4 year stint at one of the Yale libraries, and etc. Mostly I wanted to be making and selling crafts and gifts and being a mom, my favorite career until now. In ' 96 Steve received a masters in social work from Columbia and our children started the process of leaving home. Paul followed Tom all through school from Catholic school, to Hopkins Grammar school (a 300 year old prep school) to Syracuse University. Our daughter Margaret is very talented and creative and hated school so after 7th grade we gave her the choice to be home educated. It was a great experience for us. She moved to Seattle, Washington when she was 18 after having just spent 2 monthes traveling on her own in France. She was in Italy when 9/11 happened having just spent a month in Palestine doing political activities on behalf of the Palestinians. She is well rounded and has a lot of political savvy. She's working toward being a photo journalist and video documentarian. Our oldest, Tom is living in Las Vegas with his girlfriend Kim and doing his own thing.

We are late bloomers so that is what I expect our children will be. We will be seeing the two of them in July when we go to San Antonio and Granbury TX to visit grandmothers. Our younger son, Paul is currently living in Boston working on a graduate degee in political science. He would like to work eventually as an analyst in the intelligence community Almost two years ago I finally moved into my own art studio and have been working on developing my creativity and a career in art. It is thrilling and painful and what life is all about. Steve is currently in private practice as a psychotherapist, he likes the word sham-an--Carl Jung can explain that one to you.

After TX we will spend 3 weeks in Maui. When we get home at the end of August we will have to hit the ground running. I just love it. My maiden name is Popov, my married name is Knezek and my professional artist name is Branch. That last one came about 15 years ago when I told our children that none of them could be president with such an ethnic last name as Knezek. We needed a new one. Tom came up with Branch which appealed to me, then I realized the first Bush was president. What the heck! It was simple and some how connected me to some of my roots so I kept it. None of my children have followed suit.

All hate mail and kindred spirits can e me at mamapearl(at)bust.com. If anyone knows the whereabouts of Carolyn Terrell I would love to make contact with her. As far as I know she went to Erie College in Pennsylvania after graduation and never looked back.

Larry Mehl

Boston, MA

A big Howdy from Boston, home of the World Champion Patriots and Red Sox! After graduating college and Law School, I relocated to Washington, DC and was with the SEC for 3 years. Thereafter I was with a few NYSE listed companies, finally ending up in Boston where I had the opportunity of a lifetime, living in London, NY City and here while raising a family. After retiring (for the first time at the end of 1992), I concentrated on golf full time and won the match play championship at my club. Having a wife who encouraged me to go back to work and get out of the house, I co-founded a seafood company which we built up and after a few years, we found someone who wanted it more than us. So, retirement again for a couple of years, and more golf! After having some serious health issues, I got a second chance at life and once again, my wife strongly encouraged me to go back to work. So, I am back to practicing law with a couple of friends, while my wife is managing a jewelry store. Our oldest son is married and in the marketing and entertainment business in Chicago, our daughter is married to a lawyer living in Dallas with their daughter, and our youngest son is a Junior at The Wharton School at U Penn. I have not been back to Texas in many years, but if I am notified in advance about the next reunion, we will attend. I have not been referred to as Boomer since College, and I really miss Tex/Mex food, barbecue and Texas winters. Best regards to all. Larry Mehl (email l.mehl(at)comcast.net)

I found myself on the lost list and wanted to let you know that I'm here in Charlotte and have enjoyed all the postings to the website so much. I spent hours with my yearbook just as everyone else did. I attended the 30th reunion with Suzy Curley and Bobby Bethea, but unfortunately didn't make it to this one.

I have lived in Charlotte for 23 years now where my husband, David, is Dean of Students at Charlotte Country Day School. I have worked in the field of medical billing and coding for about 15 years. It's very challenging and interesting to me. I have 2 children, Edmund (24 yrs) who graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill and Mary (19 yrs) who just graduated from Country Day and will attend Univ of So Carolina at Columbia next year. I have kept up with lots of people through Suzy Curley. We have remained the best of friends since being in homeroom together beginning in 1961. There really has not been a long period of time when we did not have some type of communication. We've been through some hard times but mostly great times and I can't imagine not having her in my life. She even fixed me up on a blind date with my husband when we were at TCU in 1967. Now that's a friend! She made sure that Bobby and I made to the 30th and we wanted to do it again…maybe next time.

Most of the Lorimers still live in Ft Worth. As a matter of fact, only Andy and I live out of the area. We are planning to get together next month for my dad's 85th birthday. In a strange turn of fate, my dad married Nancy Stuck last summer. Two 84 year old love birds. His health isn't the greatest, but they get around pretty well, and I think Nancy is enjoying all her new children and grandchildren (24!) and great grandchildren (3!). I have enjoyed this website so much! Everyone who has written seems to be happy and has accomplished so much. I have to say that my husband, as the disciplinarian at his school, was amazed at the bonfire article.

My favorite teacher was Rita Marie Thompson and I was in her English class when Kennedy was shot. I remember it so well. She was very good to us and I have not met an English teacher who compares to her. Thanks for this website and the opportunity to keep up. See you at the 50th!

Sherry Almquist Seymour has been found!

I recently learned about this website and am thrilled that it exists! I've just spent hours going through it and learning about where people are and what's going on in their lives. I also found out about dear friends who are now gone. It was a shock. Thank you, Clif, for putting this together.

I would have loved to come to the reunion if I'd only known. I did call the school several years ago and was told to call the Star Telegram regarding class reunions. Unfortunately, for me, I didn't follow thorough. The pictures and bios are terrific! What's really exciting is that several friends from school live very close by! Lou Levy and his wife live less than a mile from my mother-in-law in La Jolla.

I've been married to my husband, Peter Seymour, for 20 years and we have one fabulous 18 year old son who just graduated from high school here in Del Mar, California, which is part of San Diego county. He's taking this year off to travel and enjoy himself before throwing himself into college. He's currently in Paris, lucky dog.

Peter is a psychiatrist and medical director for inpatient psychiatric services at Scripps Mercy Hospital in San Diego and has a private practice. We've gone to several of his high school and college reunions ( he grew up in La Jolla) and they've made me long to see all of you.

I graduated from Texas Tech in 1968 with a BA in psychology and a minor in French. I wanted to live in France and be a social worker. I married Gary Joe Hineman, also in our class. We were married for eight years and realized we'd grown up and were different in many ways. We painfully divorced but are still in touch as he lives in San Diego and is an editor for Harcourt Brace.

We moved to Newport, RI so he could go to Officer Candidate School and then to San Diego. I've been here since 1969. I completed my master's degree in Social Work in 1973 and have had a great career ever since. I worked in the 70's helping drug-using teens and parents through education and psychotherapy. I went on to work in the Psychiatry Department of UC San Diego for 12 years as a therapist and teaching graduate students in social work, psychology, anthropology and psychiatric reisidents. It was fun! I've always maintained a private psychotherapy practice, as well. I met Peter in 1984, and it was almost instant love. He had a "scholarship" to go throug medical school that required you pay it back at three times the amount of interest or serve in a "man power shortage area". We chose the latter and moved to Columbia, Tennessee, which is just outside Nashville. We were there for 5 years and returned to San Diego to be near our families. Andy, our son, was born there.

Enough rambling. Finding all of you has been wonderful! Current address: 13786 Pine Needles Drive Del Mar, CA 92014 858-793-0613 saseymour15(at)aol.com Hope to hear from and be in touch with people soon. Sherry

Schools: Following Paschal I spent four years at Baylor, graduating in 1968; Attended T.C.U and University of Texas at Arlington during summer sessions to lighten my Fall course loads....Degree: Chemistry/Biology Career: Eighteen years with Corporate Pepsi-Cola Company in New York, Phoenix, AZ Jacksonville, FL, and Tulsa, OK. as Divisional Technical Service Manager.

For eight years I was Corporate Quality Assurance Manager for M.E.I. Pepsi-Cola Company over 25 bottling/canning plants throughout the country. Following my years with Pepsi-Cola I worked for two national chemical companies as National Accounts Manager in Atlanta.GA My family returned back to the Metroplex about 6 years ago for family reasons, and I "dabbled" in retail grocery store management with two major companies Currently I am semi-retired while keeping busy coordinating the of drilling of natural gas wells in North Texas on family property and working to sell real estate in Keller, TX.

Marriage:While in Tulsa, OK, I met a pretty school teacher, Rae, and have been married for 25 years. We have two grown sons, Ryan and Robert. Sometime soon we will move back to Tulsa to rejoin our in-laws and grandchildren. Reunion: Rae and I are looking forward to the 40th Year Paschal Reunion in June. I have many fond "and some painful" memories of my Paschal days. I still have not forgotten the pain of running for Coach Turner in basketball and Coach James Cox in track. Now I wish I could jog just one lap around the track without stumbling or running out of breath. I am about 40 pounds heavier these days. I have many happy memories of my Paschal and Baylor days. Even though I have not seen many of my "old, but young-at -heart" friends of the 1964-1968 era in many years, I still think of them and wonder where and how they are doing 40 years later. I suppose that I will find out during the June 25-26th Paschal Reunion.

Paschal Days Remembered: Endless sprints in the gym and laps around the track as directed by the Coach Turner and Coach Cox....Senior Prom in 1964.

Looking forward to seeing all of you at that time.

My days at PHS will always bring back fond memories, especially the football games, art class, chorus...can't believe they don't do that any more! PE!! Do they even know what that is? Coach Cox's biology class! The senior plays! My little piece of "junk" Dodge, Lulu, and all the memories she brings.

Occupation: I am a Microbiologist - currently Director of Laboratory Operation for Bio-Medical Services in Austin, Texas.

My thoughts about my PHS days - I have really mixed memories about my days at PHS. I was a "new kid" on the block when I came to PHS, since my mother re-married during my 9th grade year and I moved from Dallas to Ft. Worth. I didn't feel very welcomed at PHS my first couple of years, but by my senior year, I had made a lot of new friends.

I was a twirler in the band my senior year and that was my real interest. Outside of "being in the band" (I was only in the band so I could be a twirler), I competed in twirling contests almost every month. I remember that I was competing in a contest during the Spring of our senior year in Midlothian, Texas, and during warm-ups, I broke my wrist when my baton hit my wrist bone on a difficult catch. I continued through the competition, winning first place (with a broken wrist). I then had to attend most of my senior activities with my arm in a cast. I twirled for a competition group call "Cowtown Cadets" and during my senior year, we won the Texas State Twirling Corp Championship and continued to the National Competition in Milwaukee Wisconsin, where we placed 9th. I remember the day President Kennedy was shot , and watching all of the TV coverage - wondering whether or not we would continue with the Sport Follies presentation that next weekend. (I was one of the Sport Follies Queen nominees).

After graduation, I attended the University of Texas at Austin and pledged Alpha Chi Omega Sorority. I majored in getting my MRS. degree and married at the end of my Sophomore year. After 23 years of marriage, my husband and I decided to go different directions. In 1983, I went back to the University of Texas and proceeded to get a BA in Microbiology and and BS in Medical Technology. I worked for 15 years as a Microbiologist at Brackenridge Hospital in Austin, and in 2002, I became Director of Laboratory Operations for Bio-Medical Services in Austin. Our company provides allergy testing services and treatment on an International scale to over 10,000 veternarians.

I have two children, a daughter - Stephanie Dugger Woodard, who is a family practice attorney in Ft. Worth. She has given me 3 adorable grandsons. I also have a son, William Michael Dugger, that lives in Pflugerville, Texas and manages an auto repair/ tire company. He is married but has no children yet. Almost a year ago, I re-connected with the guy I dated my senior year at PHS. I have been single for 14 years and he is in the middle of a divorce,but we have been dating ever since Easter 2003, and plan to get married probably within the next year. His name is Joe Percy and he was in the class of '65. He played Baritone Sax in the PHS Stage Band and graduated from Tarleton State with a degree in Music Education. He played baseball for PHS and Tarleton State.

Since it seems that there is a recurring DOG theme in everyone's bio's, you can add that 2 years ago I adopted 2 "Carin Terriers"(brothers) from the humane society in Austin. They are now 40 lbs. each and the size of small German Shepherds. Their names are Brooks and Dunn.

Occupation: Scuba Diving Charter boat Captain

After graduating from Paschal, I attended Arlington State College then to become UT at Arlington. After graduating with a Mechanical Engineer degree I then went to work for General Dynamics where I read about their scuba club and I signed up for lessons. I was hooked from the first dive in Canyon Lake.

Four years later I took my first of 4 Scuba Instructor classes in Houston. I then took a position with Cullum and Boren Sporting Goods store in Ft. Worth as there Department Manager for the scuba dept. In 1980 a friend of mine down in Houston just opened a new dive store and asked me if I would move to Houston and teach for him so I did.

In 1988 I sat for my USCG Merchant Marine Captains License 100 ton exam and passed. 3 months later I hired on with Rinn Boats out of Freeport, Texas as Captain on their newly acquired 100' scuba charter dive boat, named the M/V Fling. So for the past 17 years I have been running a lot of trips out in the Gulf of Mexico to the National Marine Sanctuary Flower Garden Banks and Stetson Bank. I am always poor but I will say this I love my job and I get to meet so many new and wonderful people and I have seen many beautiful underwater marine life animals each trip I take out. I am also very active with several Dive clubs in the Houston.

I had a lot of good times at Paschal and miss Having Coach Charlie Turner yelling at me for not doing everything right all the time. He did come up to me one day and said he would go with me to fight the Russians and now we are joined together in the greatest space venture , the International Space Station. Getting to sit in V.P. Cherry's office for 2 years instead of having to sit in study hall. I got to here and see a lot of what happened in the office. I knew how was in trouble before they new they were going to be brought in to Cherry's office. Mr. Barr was just great. Mr. Hamilton taught me a lot and gave me my interest in engineering. Then there was Miss Ripper my English teacher. I was a poor English student, did not like English, did not want to take English either and I had to wind up my first year at Paschal with the toughest English teacher as the word got back to me. Then I signed up for Ms. Ripper my Junior and Senior year. I loved the pain I guess.

Then came the Arlington Heights bon Fire. I wanted to go but did not have a way to get there. The crocodile borrowed from the Ft. Worth Zoo then placed in the halls of Arlington Heights was a blast. Wish I had known about that night before hand I would have been there for sure. Then came the morning of November 22,1963. I along with 3 other Paschal seniors (who will remain anonymous) To protect their innocence, played hooky that morning and went downtown to the Texas Hotel where president Kennedy and Jackie were to come out and say a few words. All 4 of us were not interested in hearing President Kennedy's speech, we just wanted to see Jackie and maybe get to chance to shake her hand and get an autograph. Jackie did not come out . President Kennedy said she was still tired. Then came the announcement in non other than Miss Ripper's English class that the president had been shot and died just 3 hours after I saw him.

Spending all night out at Six Flags over Texas after graduation night was to me a blast. Although my date stole my hat tassel. Then a year later my then girlfriend had my Senior ring and after we broke up she never gave it back to me. To this day I still don't have my Tassel or ring. Then going down town on Saturday night to the "Cellar Club" in hopes of seeing topless women. We even drove to Dallas on night and got into the "Carousel Club" then owned by Jack Ruby and watched Chris Colt and her 45's. Even though I did not drink beer at the time, I was asked and did go into King's Liquor and bought beer for other fellow Paschal classmates several times. They also will remain anonymous.

Paschal was good to me and I thank all my teachers for there wonderful lessons they taught me. Hello D.E.C. wherever you are.

Hi, Ya'll! Life in Colorful Colorado is still grand. I spent last year living in downtown San Francisco, as director of academics for a national charter school company, and dearly loved the adventure, but was anxious to scurry home to my mountains, less population density, a fenced backyard for my standard poodle, people who speak my language, and plenty of parking spaces.

This winter has been enhanced with snowshoeing, yoga, running and lots of varied consulting projects! I am off to Maui in March and London in October. Adventure still calls. Life is pretty darned grand, forty years since PHS! Hope yours is, too!

I promised myself that I would not bore my fellow classmates with the details of my life over the past forty years and here I am doing it anyway! I attended Texas Tech for two years after PHS. Unfortunately, I didn't attend classes on a regular basis. Flunked out, received my draft notice in the mail on my 21st birthday and spent two years in the army. I was the only person in my basic training unit that could type (bless you, Ms. Parker, where ever you are!) so I became a company clerk while most everyone else in my unit went straight to the infantry.

I spent eighteen months at Ft. Hood, Texas only 130 miles from home! I've alternated over the years between feelings of relief and guilt that I escaped the morass of Viet Nam while so many others were less fortunate. Thanks to a date arranged by Kelle Birdsong Whitfill, I met Joyce Ann Walsh after our Paschal days - we didn't know each other in high school. We married while I was in the army and will have celebrated our 36th anniversary by reunion time. Surprisingly, JA and Kelle are still best friends! I went back to college after the service and majored in accounting at UTA. While in school, I worked for a company that provided coin laundry service for the apartment, military and college markets and stayed with them after graduation. I had the opportunity to purchase my own company in that same industry in 1975. That company is located in Denver, Colorado and we have been here ever since.

We have two sons, 28 and 24, both still single at this point (no grandchildren) and, much like their father at a young age, still undecided as to what to do with their lives. We enjoy riding motorcycles together and ribbing their mother about her show dogs!

Favorite teacher at PHS - Charlie Turner without a doubt - but probably not for the reason you might think. We all have our Coach Turner stories but mine is perhaps a little more personal. I had Coach Turner for last period my senior year. Coach was aware that I worked after school and weekends and was also aware of some family financial problems we were having. Our arrangement was that I would come by his office every afternoon before last period, shake his hand and leave for work. I received straight A's and perfect attendance for that class. I'd give a lot to be able to shake Coach Turner's hand one last time. Another irony - the folks I worked for that year were investors in my company a dozen years later and we have remained partners for 28 years.

I think I have bored you enough. Look forward to seeing y'all (I still get kidding about my Texas twang after all these years away from home).

Correction: Joyce Ann informs me that it was Mike Moore, not Kelle Birdsong, who arranged our first date. Must be an early onset of Alzheimer's. And to think I have blamed Kelle all these years!

Sr. Financial Advisor - Morgan Stanley

I will always consider Ft. Worth, my hometown and my days at Paschal, some of the best days of my life that included some of my first eye opening experiences. My life since has been rich and full. I left Texas for college in California and never returned. I went to college (California State University, Fresno) on a golf scholarship, played five years, joined a frat (SAE) and continued to have more of the same fun that I had begun at Paschal.

Grew up in California during the turbulent 60's and spent summers in San Francisco and Berkley, increasing my eye opening experiences. After college, I turned professional in golf and played for five years primarily on the various mini-tours in and out of the country. I returned to Fresno State at the end of my playing career and was offered the position of college golf coach.

After five years as a the golf coach I resigned and started a residential and commercial construction company with my dad which we maintained for 18 years. In 1995 I moved to Atlanta, GA to be closer to my brother and shortly after went to work for Morgan Stanley as a Financial Advisor.

The most profound change in my life came the day my son, Mathew, was born and as it turns out, this is his senior year in High School, precisely at the time when I am about to visit my old high school and all of the friends who made that experience so memorable. I have tried to explain this to him and to give him a snap shot of what he may expect 40 years from now, if he is so lucky.

I can't believe it's been 40 years! Of course, the number 1 memory is JFK's assassination and all of us in total shock. The big snow storm & doing donuts in TCU's parking lot. Being best friends with Sandra Estes & all the good times we had. We still keep in touch.

About 3 years ago, I found some of the kids that I went through all 12 years of school together & we had a mini reunion dinner. That was thanks to the Internet, but the women are still the hardest to find. What great fun that was & I look forward to seeing others that I haven't seen in 40 years.

I married a graduate of Paschal, but met him at Bell Helicopter. He graduated in '60. We later parted, but we did manage to have 2 great sons. The oldest has 2 daughters now 2 1/2 years & 13 months. Wow! I'm a grandmother! It's such great fun, so much different from raising boys. The youngest is still single. Both are doing great. I look forward to retirement, which I can do at 60.

Brief Bio: College; Graduate school; Lost my deferrment; Selective Service I-A; Army mechanic; Back in grad school; Medical School; Residency in psychiatry; Private practice and teaching; health care mgmt ventures; retirement.

I restore vintage motorcycles (thanks to the skills Uncle Sam so wisely taught me), write stories and poetry, ski, fish, bicycle and play mediocre golf. One wife; two grown kids - one in Colorado, the other in NYC.

I live in Crested Butte summers and winters, San Antonio autumns and springs. No whining here.

Paschal Memories - Sitting in Mr. Wyatt's office my 10th grade year - I was so overwhelmed with his presence, I forgot I was in trouble. Getting caught playing hooky with Paul Pulliam at Kips when Mr. Berry and Mr. Cherry walked in for lunch with the honchos from the "main office". Getting complimented by Mrs. Lessor and Mr. Barr for my academic acumen - a rare experience. Pep rallies getting out of control. That crazy bonfire. The pain of knowing Cynthia Preston would have rather been with Mike Carson than me for the senior graduation party at Benbrook.

I remain an irredeemable nostalgic and look forward to reminiscing with all the old Panthers. I still find it astonishing that such a short segment of my life was filled with so much positive and negative emotion: acceptance and rejection, joy and despondency, self-confidence and insecurity. From the responses to this reunion's plans, I must not be alone.

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming -- Wow -- What a Ride!"

PHS DAYS: The best part of my days at PHS were the wonderful friends I made. I'm so fortunate that many of them are still such an important part of my life. I remember sitting in front of Susan Webb in Mrs. Howell's history class. Every time Mrs. Howell returned quizzes, Susan always made 100's and I did well just to get anything which slightly resembled passing! And having to dissect those yucky frogs in Mrs. Grisso's biology class which, I am sure, resulted in my lifelong phobia of frogs. Mrs. Standifer's tennis drills. My favorite teacher was Mrs. Kendall who inaugurated my amateur writing career. DOS. Weejuns. Managing to have 3 lunch periods my senior year. Never getting in trouble for having 3 lunch periods my senior year.

Since days at PHS: I guess I qualify as a true Colorado resident since we've lived in the beautiful Mile High City for 28 years. It has been a wonderful place to live and raise my family. Tom and I both enjoy playing golf and there are so many beautiful places in Colorado to play. Also, there are no frogs, fleas or ticks. I spent about 10 years doing community volunteer work and then took up my true passion of breeding and showing top-winning Bearded Collies. I have made some wonderful friends through my travels with my dogs. My other passion is needlepointing which I do in between grooming dogs. I look forward to seeing everyone at the reunion. Are we sure it's our 40th? It hasn't been that long has it?

Shortly after graduation in '64 the Navy called for 4 years during which I did 2 tours in Viet Nam. Life after the Navy found it's way through defense plant work at LTV and then GD. Tarrant County Junior College laid the ground work for attending the University of Texas at Austin. While in at the University I became dedicated to the game of Rugby. After two years at the University I took a 10 year Rugby sabbatical. To support myself I hired on with SWBT. While on Rugby sabbatical I was honored by being invited to the 1976 USA Eagle (the National Rugby Team) camp, the first since the 1924 Olympics. And during this period I met Karen and we were married. Not to be out done by my wife, a Graduate of the University, this aging Rugby player and telephone man terminated his sabbatical and 18 months later graduated from the University with a BBA in Management.

With this degree Ma Bell decided I needed to go on tour to apply my telephone man skills within the company. This took the adventures, George and Karen, from Austin to St. Louis, then to Dallas, then to Chicago and back to Austin while living through the 1984 break up of the Phone Company. While on this tour my daughters Leslie and Ashley were born. And I became an expert in the maintenance and administration of telephone switching systems. My return to Austin was with the now SBC Communications. There I did applied research at SBC Laboratories. After six years and four patents dealing with next generation telephony architectures I got an offer I couldn't refuse and retired after 28 years. Now was a time of bliss in the consulting realm of the telephone industry.

This bliss came crashing down with the dot com bust of 2001. I returned to SBC where today I am applying my profession at SBC Advanced Solutions, Inc. and enjoying watching my children grow up. Yes, my wife and I waited a while to have our kids while enjoying each other and our travels. Regards

After graduation, I spent the summer of '64 in France with a TCU study tour living with as an exchange student in a French home for a month. I learned just enough French to shop, order meals and to tell everyone that I really didn't speak French. I spent my freshman and sophomore years at Baylor University where I met my first wife. I spent my junior and senior years at TCU - but I lived in Dallas and commuted every day by bus. After graduation and commissioning the Air Force assigned me as a Data Processing specialist to Scott AFB in Illinois, across the Mississippi river from St. Louis. After only two of my four year tour my unit moved to a base just south of Kansas City, Missouri. Two short years I found myself assigned to the Oakland Army Terminal in California. I spend the best 4 years of my military career as an Air Force officer on an Army base that managed all of the air and sea shipping on the West coast during Vietnam.

I must have done something well there, as my next AF assignment was Computer Science graduate school at Texas A&M University. (my dad was certain that my goal in life was to attend all of the SWC universities). From A&M, I was assigned to the Pentagon and after 4 years there, somehow the AF got 'confused' and reassigned me to the Defense Communications Engineering Center, in Reston Virginia - only 4 miles from my house. My last AF assignment was with the NATO AWACS Software Support Center in Geilenkirchen, Germany, near the Dutch border about 90 miles from Kolon. I learned just enough German to shop, order meals and to have pre-school conversations with my German neighbors. I retired from the Air Force in the summer of 1988.

My last few years with NATO were spent traveling back and forth to Boeing in Seattle. So when I retired from the Air Force, I took a job with Boeing in Seattle. My first wife decided to 'find herself' in 1991. My daughter had enlisted in the Air Force and was stationed in England at that time. I went to visit her for Christmas in 1991 and met my current wife, Frances, New Year's Eve. Frances and I were married in November 1992 and now I have a total of four grown children - two in the US and two in England. Frances and I try to go to England at least once a year and often host English friends over here for 'summer holidays'. It was easier when I worked for Boeing, since they shut down every year for about 2 weeks at Christmas. However, I took early retirement from Boeing on 31-Aug-2001.

My son, Matt was in the Pentagon on 11-Sep-2001. He heard the airplane hit the building and then evacuated with a friend to safety. He said the most scary part was the next day when he realized that the plane hit the new offices that he had declined just a few months before! I started my 3rd career with Washington Mutual Bank on 17-Sep-2001. I am currently an Assistant Vice President for Software Release Management. Frances and enjoy the Seattle area and traveling to both business conferences and on holidays with our friends. We have two grandsons by my daughter who lives in the DC-area. My son is now out of the Air Force and is a government contractor working at his old job in the Pentagon. My English daughter and her husband live in Norwich England (100 miles NE of London) and my English son live in Milton Keynes about 90 miles north of London.

It seems like I have had some major life event for every past PHS reunion. I was packing up a household in Virginia headed for Germany in 1984. And in 1994, I was restarting a household and career here in the Seattle area. I think of many of you often and have enjoyed reading the published bios - and sadly the 'obits' also. Moving around so often over the past 40 years has offered me the advantages of getting to know many people and many places - but it also means that when I look around for someone they are simply not there. Emails help bridge the gap whether its across the street or around the world. For a photo of me and Frances, try my website: http://home.comcast.net/~john.d.tomlinson/ or send an e-mail.

My favorite memories of PHS were manning the Library 'pass desk' during the lunch periods. I remember my English teacher, MS Kendell, since I had her all three years. And of course I remember our all-night graduation party at 6-Flags!

After graduating, I went to Texas Tech and majored in Music (piano performance). No, you don't remember me in anything musical at Paschal and yes, it was probably not the best choice of majors. However, I persevered and it has turned out well. Married my husband of 36 years, Leon, in '67.

We have lived in or near Lubbock ever since, except for 3 Army years spent mostly in Mineral Wells. Have lived in Shallowater (10 miles NW of Lubbock) for 25 years. We have 2 married sons and 4 grandchildren. They are all the best and cutest, but you don't have time for the details. Leon, also a musician, has been in and out and back into public school music, and, after getting elem. certification, I taught 4th & 6th grades in Shallowater for 17 years and then became the middle school counselor. As a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas, I also have a small private practice. My hobbies are music, photography, speaking at educational and counseling conferences, travel and a little fly fishing in Colorado.

Best memories of PHS: friendships that grow sweeter every year, the bon fire, visiting with friends in the front hall every day before school, charity club meetings, graduation night at the Benbrook party (too cold, too loud, too out of control - where were the adults?) Best teachers: Mrs.. Kendall and Mr.. Barr. They were real and they cared.

It seems like eons ago that the world of high school existed. Regrettably I have not participated in the past reunions. However, I would like to be part of the 40th.

A brief summary since those bygone days of fun and frolic:

After High School I meandered around colleges for five years until dad said "get a job". Six years in the care and feeding of the United States Army. (Two active, four reserve) Degrees: yes, several (if only Mrs. Lesser could have lived to see it) BS in Mechanical Engineering ("Laudy How Come") and after being laid off twice, changed career paths and second, BA in Finance and Marketing (Magna Cum Laude) and then an MBA several years later.

Employed: 4 years various Aerospace companies, design engineer, in the area. 3 years president of Prelim Architectural Renderings (an art firm) 9 years United States Steel Corporation as Director of Marketing Communications 20 years Lockheed Martin, Financial, Cost/Price Analyst

Hobbies: Art (becoming a 3D graphic art junky), reading (Louise Ann Smith would probably had trouble believing I'd ever learn to read) and golf [8 Hdcp] (Mr. Gault once said that football was a better sport for me)

Family: Married 25 years to an Arizona beauty; four daughters and a son; five grandsons and one precious nine month old granddaughter

Incidental: Extremely near sighted (but contacts have eliminated those great black horn rimmed glasses we used wear). Lived in Wedgwood for 15 years and recently built a new home in Mansfield to be closer to the kids. Recently found out that John Polk works for the same company, though back east. Bob McElroy and I attend the same church.

Remember when we had decals that said "The High School"?

Thanks, Bill

Elaine Davis (Cue) here. Wow has time passed flown or what? 40 years.....unbelievable! As you can see from my return address I am now in Asheville, North Carolina and the Executive Director of a college that is 100 years old!! This area of the country is where I originally came from, with both my mother and father attending college in North Carolina.

I have two grown children. Kelly, my daughter, is now 34 married with two daughters and lives in Seattle. She is a PhD in Clinical Psychology and is a research scientist at the University of Washington. Her husband is Director of the department at Microsoft that creates the games for the Xbox. My son Chris, is married, with a son and daughter and lives in Myrtle Beach, SC. He is 30 and I think may have finally "found himself". He is going back to school and is also a very popular DJ.

I have been fortunate and lived all over the country since graduation. I went to NTSU and married Bill Cue. We divorced in 1985 and remain great friends. After the divorce, I sold the Peanut Shack that I owned at Six Flags Mall and fell into education. I have run colleges in Dallas, Columbia(SC), San Francisco, Tucson, Lafayette(Ind.), Cleveland (OH) and now Asheville.

Sad news for our family was of course the passing of my Dad, Pete Davis in 1994. Many of you contacted me when you saw the obituary in the Star Telegram and I appreciate your concerns very much. One year ago, my sister Delia Anne (6 years younger than us) passed away. She had been very ill and we were deeply saddened by the loss of such an incredibly vibrant person. Anne graduated from Paschal in 1970.

I have our college graduation on June 27, 2004, but I am planning on coming to the reunion anyway. I just may have to take a red-eye to get back in time for the celebration here. I will look forward to hearing from anyone that would like to catch up (ha........40 years!!!!!!!) and I am really looking forward to the reunion.

Wow.......Colonial..........I "took my bow" there along with Gail Allen, Micki Cooles among others. And Dad was chairman of the Colonial Tournament for several years in the 70's.............his portrait was still on the wall downstairs the last time I was there, along with the other chairmen. This will be so much fun! Thanks for finding me and thanks for the invitation!

Marriage to Carol approaching 38 years (she has a lot of patience and endurance!) Two married children, five grandchildren (ages from 2 months to 11 years), all now living in Fort Worth (it doesn’t get any better than that!). Semi-retired from banking business but still engaged in various investment activities. Both of us have found numerous enjoyable and challenging ways to serve the community. Grandparenting becoming first priority for both of us.

Still holding out hopes for success in my senior amateur golf career (probably will be in need of good, cheap “shrink”... are you available, Clifton?) Finding time now to play my guitar again… to nourish my soul (old tunes from James Taylor, Jim Croce, etc.) Looking into past with appreciation… into the future with anticipation!

To update you on what I've been doing for the past 40 years, I do bodywork therapy and specialize in CranioSacral Therapy. I have 3 daughters. Leah is 34 years old and is a German and Chinese language specialist. She was a Chinese linguist in the Navy for 6 1/2 years and is now in the Navy Reserves and is going to England and Germany for more education and work. Erin is 28 years old and lives in the Twin Cities here in Minnesota and works at the St Paul Grill in the St Paul Hotel. My youngest daughter is Caitlin who is 16 and is a junior in high school. My husband is Kevin who is retired from the military and works as a management consultant.

We live in White Bear Lake, which is a northern suburb of St Paul, where we've been for the past 22 1/2 years. Winters are great if you love snow and cold temperatures and sports. This winter, the city of St Paul built an ice castle which was great fun along with a hockey all star tournament. I'm sure you've all heard of Herb Brooks the Olympic hockey coach whose story is told in the current movie, Miracle. He lived in this city as well. White Bear Lake is also mentioned in the movie Fargo.

I would like to invite ya'll to come on up and visit sometime. We have over 10,000 lakes in Minnesota and there are lots of things to do. I just learned downhill skiing the past two years and hope to do some higher mountain skiing next winter, maybe in Colorado. See you at the reunion. Best wishes, Suzanne

Occupation: investments

I am currently quasi-retired after 20+ years as an automobile dealer in Houston. My wife of 35+ years (Mary Gwen) and I have 2 grown daughters and 2 grandsons. I thought retirement would be tough because I loved what I was doing, but it turns out that I enjoy the heck out of doing whatever I want to do whenever I want to do it. Included in the list of enjoyed activities are tennis, golf, fly fishing, skiing, mountain biking, reading, traveling, and grandparenting. We spend a good amount time at our home in Crested Butte, Colorado, and frequently get back to Fort Worth where my parents and brother still live.

Judging from a quick perusal of Paschal alum bios, Charlie Turner wins the prize as Paschal's most unforgettable character. I still remember exactly how he walked, how he sounded, and much of what he said, yet I often can't remember what I had for lunch yesterday. His persona is pretty much summed up for me by comments he made one day in gym class when we were all on our backs on the floor doing leg raises to see who would collapse last, and thus were a captive audience for a while. Paraphrasing: "I know it is probably hard for you to appreciate right now why all this pain is necessary, so I will tell you. When you leave Paschal and are shipped to Viet Nam and the first Viet Cong you meet runs you through the belly with his bayonet, I want him to feel how tough it is and say with admiration 'That must have been one of Charlie Turner's boys'."

Graduated from U.T. Austin in 1968, with degree in accounting. Commissioned as lieutenant in the Army. Served in Vietnam for one year. Married Alan Neville ,who graduated from AHHS in '64, in 1968.

We have two married daughters and each of them have three kids. So we now have six grandkids, all under the age of five. Started my own C.P.A. firm in June, 1975 and worked it until June, 2000. Sold it to some younger accountants and I am now retired from accounting work. Doing some investments, oil and gas properties and ranching.

My mid-life crisis has taken me to motorcycle riding for several years. My highlight of that phase was a trip to Sturgis with Clif and Steve Barnhart and some friends from FW (like Jim Loveless).

I enjoyed lots of stuff at Paschal. POSSE, football games, and my three favorite teachers were Mrs. Ripper, Mrs. Lester and Mr. Gire. Learned a lot from them.

My current mid-life crisis is team roping and general ranch work (and fun). My wife and I enjoy our church, Bible studies, and many other parts of life. We all have big ups and downs. Just got to get through them one day at a time.

We met on a blind date in my junior year. He wanted to get out of school to go the Junior Picnic and I did not have a date. Boy, now that's a gift that keeps on giving! Poor guy, he just didn't know what he was getting into.

I have worked for Continental Airlines as a Supervisor Airport Services at Cleveland Hopkins Airport for the last 10 years. What great memories I have of our high school years. Coach Turner made me "sit on the wall" for some long forgoten discretion, Ms. Roberson did not turn Mickey Johnson and me in for cutting her class to leave early for Round Up, Ms. Todd keeping her Vagabonds in check with her strong will and personality and just general harmless mischief involved in.

I am looking sooooo forward to this Reunion and seeing all of ya'll. See you in June!

WoW!! 40 years? Where did the time go? I attended Tarleton State for 2 years. My maternal grandparents owned a ranch near Stephenville, and I left for college, majoring in agriculture, certain that I wanted to raise cattle and horses. During my first semester, my agronomy professor (who was also my freshman counselor) Mr. Evans called me into his office and asked me why I was wasting my time in Ag courses, what did I really want to do. So at his urging I changed my major to pre-veterinary medicine.

I went to summer school for 2 years and was accepted into vet school at Texas A&M in June 1966. At the time the veterinary curiculum there was 9 trimesters, so we attended classes year round for 3 years. I graduated with honors and a DVM at the tender age of 23, still not knowing what my life's work might be. I considered going to graduate school in pathology and also considered, all but briefly, law school. In September 1969 I got a job as a veterinarian working for Dr. Ed Ellison at Wedgewood Animal Hospital in Fort Worth earning the handsome sum of $750 monthly. I got my first paycheck and invested part of it on a Labrador Retriever puppy. I subsequently attended a retriever field trail (bad mistake), and I have been heavily involved with competition retrievers since 1971.

In 1974, I left Dr. Ellison, and went into partnership in a veterinary practice (small animal medicine and surgery) in a growing northern suburb of Dallas, Lewisville. My partner retired from practice in 1990, and I became the sole proprietor. I have 2 associate veterinarians who work for me. I'm currently working 3 1/2 days a week and loving it, because I enjoy my profession and I have a great staff.

I met my wife of 20 years, Judy, at a field trial in 1977. We live on 40 acres in rural Denton County and we own a 600 acre farm/retriever training facility in Cooke County near Valley view. We own 10 black Labrador Retrievers, 5 of which are in competition, 4 Jack Russell Terriers, and 3 cats. We were both previously married and both of us are childless. Judy was born in New Jersey, and grew up in Chicago. Her father was the head of the National Merit Scholarship Foundation for many years. The midwest city girl has embraced rural Texas life with considerable vigor. She spends part of her day on one her 4 Kubota tractors and we train dogs together. She has trained 2 National Champion Retrievers and is a member of the Retriever Hall of Fame. We compete in about 12 or 15 field trials each year, most of them in Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana.

Besides training dogs, for fun, I go pheasant hunting in South Dakota twice a year and in Kansas twice a year. Oh, and Eddie became Ed after I left PHS.

Joyce Ann (Walsh) Burgett called me and shamed me into participating in this nostalgic activity.

Paschal Days remembered: I was kind of a flake through high school but the thing I recall most vividly is the Kennedy Assassination and not quite believing it could possibly be real.

My Life since then: Graduated from TCU with the first degree in Deaf Ed to be granted there. Moved to Philadelphia to teach at the Pennsylvania School for the Deaf. Moved to Washington DC to take courses at Gallaudet University (actually it was Gallaudet College at the time … this was a really long time ago and WAY before the historical "Deaf President Now" movement on which I reported when I wrote for The Garden Island newspaper on Kaua`i)

Moved to Dallas to teach at Callier Institute and moved in with old sweetheart Charlie Cramer.

Moved to Kapa`a, Kaua`i to live because I love it there. (I've lived in the Islands for 24 years now and I can't imagine NOT living on a tropical island!) Met and married Marshall Mock, acquired stepson Noel, had son Brandon. Taught Anatomy and Physiology at Kaua`i Community College. Taught Deaf class at Kapa`a High.

Came out.

Moved to Honolulu with Brandon and Noel (Moved to Kaneohe on Windward O`ahu a couple years ago. Got divorced. Moved to Honolulu with Brandon and Noel (Moved to Kaneohe on Windward O`ahu a couple years ago. Got divorced. Brandon now lives in Honolulu, but Noel still lives with me).I became Itinerant Teacher of the Deaf for the Honolulu District.

Along the way I've picked up a master's in biology, another master's in teaching students with visual impairments, and am currently working on a third masters …in Deaf Ed, which I'm hoping will work into an Ed.D. if they expand the program … because I'm tired of collecting masters degrees.

Hello to all of the PHS class of 64. Reading the bio's has been great fun. Our class definitely produced many successful adults; many still married to their original spouses(you are my heroes) and many living far from Fort Worth. We have lost a few good friends, but most are still here and relatively healthy and look great too.

My fondest memories of PHS are of Carlson's, Merry-Go--Round, Parkaire Drive- In, parties at my house on Mistletoe Dr., Phylades, finally getting to car date at 16, when I was a junior!! Mrs. Aubyn Kendall encouraged me to read, read, and read. It is one of my favorite pastimes. Mrs. Dunning encouraged me to develope my artistic talents, and I majored in Art at Texas Tech for a year and a half. I guess that I am using these artistic talents today in my business. I am a cosmetologist and have had my business in Hurst the last 20 years. I realized too late that I should have gotten a degree in psychology too. My clients could then get an hour session and have their nails done at the same time and I could charged a lot more than I do now! Now I listen to it at no charge!

I've been very fortunate to maintain many friendships from PHS. Some I see often, others I talk to frequently, others only occasionally. They all mean so much to me. Steve Webb and I married in 1966. Jennifer was born in 1969. She and her husband, Scott have 3 daughters, Mackinsey 6, Sydney 4, and Carson Grace, 4 months. Jim was born in 1970. He has a daughter, Ashley 13, and my only grandson, Stephen Dillon 10. My grandchildren make their GaGa feel special all the time. I love being being a grandmother.

My life is calm now. I have accepted Christ as my Savior. I love to garden, fill my bird feeders, walk, play with Lucie, my dog that I found 4 years ago. I date occasionally, still like to go dancing. Someday, before I get too old, I would like to learn to play the drums and finish my scuba diving lessons. Guess I'll close this novel now. Looking forward to seeing everyone in June. Remember: Joy is contagious, but don't wait to catch it from others; be a carrier. Love, Pandora
