Elizabeth Walsh Wilson [Norman, OK]	I've been working for this great state for 25 plus years and lovin it! I am up for retirement (hard to belive! lol) soon and plan on going to nursing school or some kind of caregiving as that is one of my many passions in life~~ I have one child.. he's already 15! They do grow up fast and he is my greatest blessing! I've not kept in touch with many folks that I went to school with as some have moved away.. one moved to Belize!! wow!! lol!! and a couple of other friends have went with the Lord. So, hopefully, I can reunite with my friends from NHS soon! :) Especially the ones that hung out on the "patio"! :) I love the outdoors as always..camping, hiking, small town festivals.. etc. I try to live the simple life but I do got a little bit of redneck/hippie/flowerchild in me still! lol God bless us all!~ Thanks!

I'll have more time to catch up with everyone.
David Webb [Riverside, CA]	Iâ€™ve been in construction most of my whole life. After going through the school of hard knocks Iâ€™ve been able to work my way up to being a project manager for a commercial construction company. In 1987 somehow I convinced a beautiful and intelligent woman,( Laura Marie) to marry me. With that she has blessed me with 2 great kids, Christopher now 18 and a freshman in college,(who seems to have her brains.) And my little princess Ciara now 11,(who seems to be more like me. She just wants to play and have a good timeâ€¦GREAT!) As for me I refused to grow up. I still do wild and crazy things. Recently Iâ€™ve learned how to sky dive and for the past 9 years Iâ€™ve been a voluntary employee for the Riverside County Sherriffâ€™s office, doing mountain rescue. Flying out of helicopters and hanging out on the sides of cliffs. On the other side for the past 3 years Iâ€™ve served on the church council at St. Paul Lutheran Church. One year as V.P., and the past two as Presidentâ€¦ Go figure! In closing I would like to follow Brett Walkers lead in setting the story strait. One, I have been to Hawaii but no I was never in jail there. Two, I didnâ€™t get kicked out of Central for drinking a whole bottle of Vodka and going back to school, it was only three quarters of a bottle and it was cherry Vodka. Any way I look forward to seeing all of you again at our 30th. Until then take care and may the Lord be with us all.

I have a daughter, Coral, who is in college in Durango, and has turned out to be a wonderful human being. I try to enjoy the mountains as much as I can.... camp, hike (look for rocks, berries, or mushrooms), 4-wheel, canoe, play softball, ski (downhill), mountain bike (downhill), soak at the hot springs, and recently learning to ride my Sportster. I love living in beautiful Boulder, but haven't become a Buffs fan, still a Sooner at heart! web web
