I regret that I will not be able to attend this year's class reunion. I very much appreciate the invitation, and even though I did not graduate from Columbus; I wish I could have!

I presently live in Clintonville Wisconsin, having retired from education. I worked in the Clintonville School District for 31 years as a teacher and school administrator. My wife Judy and I have raised three wonderful daughters who are now married and blessing us with grand children. We are at six and counting! We are so fortunate that our children live in the Appleton/Green Bay area so we see and enjoy them regularly.

Since I retired, I have worked for Waupaca County as a coordinator for delinquency prevention grant and now as Director of a Family Resource Center in Marion, Wisconsin. So much for retirement! My wife Judy is still employed and works as a paraprofessional for the Clintonville School District as a librarian.

In my free time, I love to pontoon on the lakes we live on with my wife, travel, especially to Door County, fish and visit our grand children. It is my hope that I can attend our 50th class reunion, God willing! I hope the class of 64 has a great reunion and enjoys time together!
