What a fast 50-years, can’t really believe it. Married to my wife Cheryl for 44 years, two kids 5 grand kids one profession many employers including myself. Worked and lived in Salt Lake, Denver and the last 15 years in Phoenix which is paradise. Able to take an early retirement to work on my bucket list which seams to be getting longer instead of shorter. Will have to live forever to get it all done. This is as good as it gets and it happened without spending any time or money on a god or religion, must be a miracle.  Send Bill a Message

I have since then been in private practice just north of San Francisco.I am married. We have four children and two grand children. My oldest son now lives in Salt Lake City, and I am frequently reminded of fond memories of the years at East High. I hope all is well with my classmates.

retired clinical social worker/therapist
Married

I was born in Salt Lake City, attended Bonneville Elementary, and Stewart Junior High on the UofU campus. Immediately after barely graduating from East because of a rebellious attitude I joined the USAF. I was baptized into the LDS Church during basic training and that event dramatically changed the direction of my life. I served as a motion picture photographer in the military for four years, then returned to Salt Lake and attended the U. In 1968 I married Rosemarie Garff in the Salt Lake Temple, worked as a Salt Lake City police officer, graduated from the U in sociology, and received my MSW in social work, also from the U. I worked in Alaska for the Bureau of Indian Affairs for a few years and then settled in Las Vegas where I worked for the VA in mental health, retiring in 1999. We have five children, and eight grandchildren after 42 wonderful years of marriage. I currently am an ordinance worker in the Las Vegas Temple, after having served as a bishop and in a stake presidency. You see what I mean about a change in direction. I look back on high school with regret that I wasted so many opportunities to participate, but tried hard to make up for it at the U, and was eventually selected for Skull and Bones and Owl and Key.

After taking a year off after high school to work and travel, I attended the U of U for two years, then married and started a family. At the age of 35 I completed my last two years at the U and began working full-time (our children were teenagers by now, so that as a little scary!). At 50 I completed the executive MBA program while employed at the U in the school of business. I retired in 2006. I have fond memories of East -- pep club, junior choir ("armpits") and a'capella choir... Also Hillside Jr. My twin, Dianne, and I decided to swap classes a couple of times to see if the teachers caught on, and they never did. Send Suzanne a Message

Retired senior lecturer
Single

I completed a PhD in Entomology at the University of Utah and emigrated to Australia in 1974 and later took out citizenship here. I was employed at the University of New England (in Armidale, New South Wales) since 1974 and retired as a Senior Lecturer in Entomology and Invertebrate Zoology in 2004 and stayed on as an Honorary Fellow until 2006. I also served as Associate Dean for Teaching and Learning for the Faculty of The Sciences and as a University Ombudsman. I have been a National Tertiary Education Union activist and was recognized in 2004 by being voted in as a Life Member of the Union. In 1996 I was awarded the Distinguished Achievement Award by the Academic Women’s Association of UNE for my efforts to promote the recognition of the achievement of women and was included as an ‘Inspirational Woman’ at UNE in 1997. I was awarded the Vice Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Equity in 2004 in recognition of my commitment to equity and diversity. I loved teaching and inspiring my students to love insects (and invertebrates in general) as much as I do. Since retiring I enjoy reading, gardening and walking with my dogs. I live on a small property near a small, rural village about 30km from Armidale, NSW, a town of about 20,000 people. Send Mary a Message
