In the last 50 years:
48 wonderful years married to Diane; three wonderful children - Leigh, Steve, and Martha - now living in San Diego, Los Angeles, and Phoenix respectively. Graduated from Depauw University in Greencastle, Indiana, June 1961. Returned to Danville and worked in family business 1961-1985 when I sold it and essentially retired. Worked as President/Ceo of Danville Area Chamber of Commerce 1990 - 1993. Enjoyed time off again until 2005 when called upon by an old friend in Champaign to return to the workforce to run computer accounting for five holding companies. Still doing it and enjoying the work. Outside activities have included: Scottish Rite Masons, Danville Rotary Club, and church organists at St. James United Methodist Church from 1963 to 1969. Music is still an important part of my life, but only at home now. Diane has been active in Danville Garden Club for many years and served as Chairperson of Danville Make It Bloom Contest for several years. She has made our house a home and a very comfortable, enjoyable, and happy place to which to retreat at the end of each day. Life is good! We send our very best to all of our friends and classmates in the class of '57, and extend an invitation to any and all who might care to stop for a visit.
