Biographies

20th Reunion

July 28, 1984

Don Beardsley

      Current address is Box 138A, East Lake Rd., Auburn.  Don has been married to Linda for 15 years.  They have two boys:  Bruce-15 and Brad-7.  After many years of being self-employed, Don is now a manufacturers rep.  Linda is a teacher which probably explains her patience with Don all these years.  They met at the Sherwood Inn and enjoy golf and travel.  Don has memories of anything that happened while he was in high school.  I've heard that too much alcohol kills millions of brain cells.

Colleen Flynn Brezee

      Currently lives at 6 Standart Ave., Auburn, with her husband Vic and Joelle, Kevin, and David.  Vic and Colleen have been married for 16 years and met at St. Mary's School in the fifth grade.  Those nuns just couldn't keep them apart.  Colleen is the Asst. Sales Mgr. at Fanny Farmer (you lucky girl!) and Vic is a Drafting Mgr. at the former Singer Co.  They are avid hockey fans and Coleen is a cheerleading supervisor.  What she remembers she's not telling.

Jack Cameron

      Jack and Pat reside at 25 Lewis St.  in Auburn with their son Woody (John III).  Jack is a professor at Sullivan County Community College and Pat is a teacher at BOCES.  They enjoy camping, swimming, and travel.  Jack remembers when he was young and foolish, but now he is just foolish.  he hopes to be traveling and teaching internationally by our 25th.

Joan Scott Classen

      Joan lives at 3127 Carol Ave. in Lake Worth, Florida.  She has been married to Eric for 16 years and has two boys:  Scott-14 and Craig--11.  Joan is a registered nurse and Eric is a heavy equipment operator.  They enjoy ceramics, fishing and gardening.  Joan and Eric met while on a blind date with someone else.  Joan remembers when she used to be quiet and has traveled to Mexico since the last reunion.

Gary and Marge Beardsley Cogar

      The Cogars have recently moved from Baldwinsville area to 31 Oakcliff Court, East Amherst, NY.  They have been married for 15 years and have 3 children:  Andy-11, Sarah-7, and Danny-3.  Gary is Asst. Professor at SUNY Buffalo Dental School.  Marj is his faithful tennis partner and domestic engineer in this new challenge.  They enjoy camping and photography and of course are dedicated Bills and Sabres fans.  Would you believe they met in Miss Liddle's homeroom?

Russ Darrow

      Russ lives at 680 Nordyke Rd., Cincinnati, Ohio.  He has been married to his wife Sue for 14 years (God bless you, Sue).  Their son Brady is 11 and Chad is 9.  Russ sells microscopes and was evidently exposed to a virus while bending over the tube one day, because his fond remembrances will get us both banned form the reunion.  Russ enjoys tennis, antiques, classical music and jogging.  I hope you will be through with shock treatments soon, Russ

Bonnie Walters DeLelys

      Bonnie lives at 105 Fernwood Drive in Baldwinsville, NY.  She has a son Michael John who is 5 years old.  She is looking forward to seeing how little all of us have changed in 20 years

Keith Durfee

      Keith resides at RR#1, box 204, Poughquag, NY.  Try spelling that without looking.  He has been married to his wife Erica for 15 years.  they have 2 girls:  Mary Ellen-14 and Laura--13.  Keith is Engineering Mgr. with, I think, Big Blue (IBM) and Erica is a housewife.  There is a special place in heaven for mothers of multiple teenage girls.  Don't try to call them, the line will always be busy.  They met at ACC, now CCCC, and recently lived in Japan for 2 years. (Yokoso)

Judi Vorreuter Sterling Eastwood

      Judi must have extra large business cards printed.  Didn't I see your name on Masterpiece Theater last night?  Judi and her husband Art live at 384 Concord St., Manchester, NH.  Judi and Art have 3 children:  W. James-17, Candice-9, and Matthew-6.  Judi is a Sales Rep. with Pitney Bowes and Art is a Business Mgr.  They met at Manchester's top night spot. (Obviously, an insider joke)  Judi hopes to be earning $60,000-80,000/year by our 25th reunion.  She feels this is due primarily to her leaving the banking business (are you listening, Carlos?)

Phyllis Bowes Farrell

      Phyllis resides at 32 Occum Ridge, Hanover, NH.  She and Gault have been married for 16 years and they have 2 children:  Julie-9 and Colin-8.  After an enjoyable mid-life crisis, Phyllis went back to graduate school and is now a Nurse Practitioner.  Gault is an M.D.. and they met at the Albany Medical Center.  Phyllis has fond memories of her graduation hat slipping off her head as she sang the National Anthem.

Tina Kott Farrell

      Tina lives in Auburn at 59 Bradford St.  Most days of the year, Tina is employed as zookeeper/animal trainer at the Kapusta Bros. Flying Circus; otherwise know as :  Brian-7, Nicholas-5, and Shaun-3.  All kidding aside (Tina says, ÒWhoÕs kidding?Ó), Jim is an Air Technician with the N.Y. Air National Guard and Tina is an exquisite cake decorator of no small repute in the Auburn area.

Laurel Gedan

      Laurel, aka Dottie Rubenstein, lives at 7350 S.W. 105th Place, Miami, Fl.  Laurel met her husband Ira in rochester 14 years ago and they have been married for 10 years.  She is a bean counter, I mean Accountant, with Florida Power Light and is a registered C.P.A.  Ira is Executive VP of I.R. E. Financial Corp.  They keep busy with golf, travel, and the Coral Gables WomenÕs Club.  Good luck with the red Mercedes, Dottie.

Carol Karpinski Groeschel

      Carol lives in Sao Paulo, Brazil and can be reached through East man Kodak, Rochester, NY.  She and Paul have been married for 16 years and have four children:  Chris-15, Paul-12, Katie-7, and Brian-4.  Paul is the Financial Manager for Kodak Brasilia.  It has been a busy 5 years with moving, another child, and braces for Carol (Gary Cogar will tweak them if you come to the reunion, Carol).

Betsy Hill

      Betsy lives in Virginia Beach, Va.  She is a Program Manager and enjoys skiing and folk dancing.  She remembers when Tom Drake definitely didn't act like a Reverend.  Betsy has moved 4 times in the last 5 years, and hopes to have moved again by our 25th reunion.  Moving should be easy for  a girl who has ridden the  Loch Ness Monster at Busch Gardens a million times.

Susan Allen Hass

      Susan lives in Bethel, Connecticut.  Sue has been married for 6 years to Robert whom she met at Quincy Market in Boston (probably at the HOG WILD shop).  Sue is a Fiduciary Accountant and Robert is a Sales Rep.  She loves almost all types of music and has no memory of any of her years at East High.

William Havill

      Bill resides in Carol Stream, Il.  He and Christin have been married for 10 years and have 3 children:  William II-8, Whitney Blair-4, and Casandra Brooke-2.  Christin is an interior designer and Bill is an Account Executive with Allied Van Lines.  Bill has two fond memories from long ago.  One is being caught smoking by Mr. Miskell in the boy's room and the other is the hair that used to be on his head.

Gail Kingston Harris

      Gail lives in Yorba Linda, CA.  She and her husband Mel have been married for 6 years and have 3 children:   Kimberly-17, Amy-16, and Shawn-14.  Gail fondly remembers when she was as old as her daughters and had all the fun they are having now.  she is a secretary for an insurance company and Mel is Ass't national Sales Mgr. for U.S. Suzuki.  They will be riding to the reunion on matching dirt bikes.  gail hopes to put three kids through college without going broke.  her solution will be printed in the 25th bio sheet.

Thomas Herrling

      German, rumored to have brain damage, wrote a very strange bio sheet.  The years have obviously not been kind to poor German.  I quote, "If I do not make the reunion you will know that: 1.  I have passed on    2.  I have been hospitalized due to exhaustion from wild orgies    3.  I have been captured by a tribe of Amazon women    4.  I can no longer find Auburn on the map."  He lists his occupation as contractor or "standing at stud".  He has been married to Donna Dulaney for 9 years (my sympathies, Donna) and they have three children:  Pascal-9, Danielle-7, and Ian-5.  Donna is an E.R.A. advocate and they met in Naples, Fl.  He remembers when he had more hair, was less ugly (obvious brain damage), drank like a fish, and made a complete fool of himself.  his goal is to won two banks, three harems and a lab to find out how Mercado's and DanielÕs brains work.  Miss Forshee would be proud of you, German.

Jack Hilbert

      Jack resides in McMurray, PA.  Jack and his wife Sandy have been married for 2 years and have 3 children:  Eric-12, Jennifer-12, and Wendy-9.  Jack is a busy dentist and he and Sandy find time for tennis, bridge, and skiing.  Their goal for the next  reunion is to have sailed to the Caribbean "Four Seasons" style.

Steve Hole

      Steve lives in Duluth, Georgia.  He and his wife, the former Marie Coghlin, have been married for 14 years and have 2 children:  Amy-11 and Allison-9.  Steve is a Pharmaceutical Sales Rep. and Margie is a Teacher Ass't.  they enjoy flying as a hobby and met each other at the Sunset.  Steve's fond memories are of Mrs. Humbert catching him cheating (NO!) on a Latin exam and Mrs. Fish washing his face with a dirty paint sponge.  Slade always used to say that about you but I never believed it.

Ginny Morhiser Kentner

      Ginny lives in Columbus, Ohio.  She and her husband David have been married for 12 years and have a son Chad who is 5.  Ginnie is a half day Kindergarten teacher and David is an attorney.  Ginny has enjoyed watching Chad grow and has fond memories of Mr. Fulton (Frog).  She always felt that  behind that rough, gruff exterior was a heart of gold.

Susan Webster Landers

      Sue lives in Pittsfield, Mass.  She has been married to Jack for 10 years and they have 2 children:  Jeff-15 and Erin-8.  Jack is a Transportation Mgr. for Generous Electric and Sue has been a Hostess at a Resort.  She loves to exercise, read and job hunt, although not in that order.  Sue is hoping to soon open her own  business.  Her fond memories were of being called "white trash" by Mr. Waldron for wearing sneakers to school--quite an insult for someone who lived in the fashionable East end.

Jeannine Goodrich Landes

      Jeannine lives in Pennburg, PA.  She has been married to Dick for 16 years and has 2 children:  Wendy-13 and Kevin-10.  Jeannine is an R.N. who works as a school nurse and Dick is a self-employed John Deer dealer.  They met in Elmira while Jeannine was in nursing school and love motorcycles.  They have taken cycle trips to Florida and Nashville together and would like to drive to Pakistan (gutsy kids).  Her fondest memories are of locking our French teacher out of the classroom.  Where'd you go, to West or sumpin?

Paula Redmond Lawson

      Paula lives in Auburn with her adorable Bungi and Christopher-16, Jeffrey-14, and Megan-8.  Between raising children, finishing her owner-built house, and starting her own specialty cake business, Paula has been very busy all these years.  Her latest challenge is to start up and manage the specialty cake department for Wegmans.  Paula's fondest memory is the night at club Dickman when she looked up and saw Gregg standing there, looking like the winner of the Alan Alda look-a-like contest.  By the 25th reunion, Paula hopes to talk Gregg out of any involvement with the 25th reunion.

Gregg Lawson

      Gregg lives in Auburn (with Paula!).  Presently, he is employed as AssÕt. Maint. Supt. at Auburn Steel Co.  Currently, he is working on becoming a Deacon in the Diocese of Rochester which involves first obtaining a Master's Degree in Theology (ugh).  don't worry--deacons aren't allowed to do confessions so you won't see ol' Bungi on the other side of the screen.  By the 25th, I hope to have all these bios done and still be happily married with 3 children.   No small task indeed.

Rick Marshall

      Rick lives in Auburn.  He and Zakia have been married for 8 years and have 2 children:  Michael-3 and Stephan--1.5.  Rick is a teacher and Zakia is a Secretary/housewife and they met in Cambridge, Mass.  Rick finds himself in Auburn after teaching school in Paris for 3 years and attaining a Master in International Relations.

Kathy Lasher McCranie

      Kathy resides in Morgan Hill, CA.  She and Daniel have been married for 18 years and have 2 children:  Stacey-15 and Morgan-10.  Kathy stays at home and plays with the home computer while Dan is VP of Sales & Marketing of SEEQ Technology  Kathy met Dan at a frat party (shades of Nat. Lampoon) at VPI and enjoys needlepoint, tennis, and horses.  Her fondest memory is when she and Jane and Cheri (obviously the bad influence in the group) skipped school for 3 days.   Yes, they spent three weeks in detention.  Crime just does not pay.

Kathryn Sood Memoli

      Kathy lives in Florham Park, N.J.  She and her husband James have been married for 12 years and have 2 children:  Matthew-10 and Mark-6.  Kathy is the newest member of the Florham Park Board of Education *huzzah, huzzah) and keeps busy with the NJ Foreign Language Teachers' Assn.  Jim is the Chairman of the Middlebury College Foreign Language Department.  Katy is able to cuss Jim out in 9 languages including English.  Her fond memories are of when she and Bev Badger were not so fluent as exchange students ordering room service and as a "jittery, jumping" cheerleader, according to Frog Fulton (frogs are jittery and jumpy, also).

Carlos H. Mercado, Jr.

      Carlos does not, contrary to Bob Tringali, have pajamas that look like a three piece gray flannel suit.  I have it on good authority from Jim Fitch.  He does admit to being Lincoln Rochester's token Hispanic however,  He and the former Miss Wendy Kellogg have been married for 15 years and have two children:  Philip-9 and Lindsay-2.  The couple met at Colgate when Carlos was running for President of the IZOD fraternity.  Carlos is currently VP & Mgr. of the International Dept. of Lincoln First Bank and Wendy is home busy amongst the tassel loafers and club neckties.  Carlos is lying and says he doesn't remember anything.  Besides, he says, "Vatter is a cop and Herlling is bigger than me."

Slade Metcalf

      Slade lives in Chappaqua, NY.  He and his wife Inna have been married for 8 years and have Stephanie who is 13 months old.  Slade is an attorney/partner with Squadron, Ellenhoff, Plesent, and Lehrer; Inna is a Financial Planner with IBM.  The couple met at Southampton and enjoy golf and pottery.  Slade has recently written a legal treatise on Media law.  Steve always used to say that about you, Slade.

Nicki Parker Moran

      Nick lives in St. Michael, MN.  She has been married for 5 years to Ron and they have 2 children:  Rebecca-14 and Jennifer-11.  Nick is a Child Protection Social Worker (special place in Heaven for you, too, Nick) and Ron is a bartender.  Nick met Ron when she moved in under him.  Nicky's fondest memory is the announcement when JFK was shot.  In the next five Nick hopes to have a mid-life crisis, a face lift, breast enlargement, false teeth, and hair grafting.  She will win the Dolly Parton look-alike contest at the 25th.

Tom Newcomb

      Tom lives in Fairport, NY.  He has been married to Gerrie for 13 years.  Tom is the Sales Mgr. for Travenol Labs and Gerrie is a Systems Analyst for Mobil Oil.  They enjoy travel, gardening, and hiking.  Tom is also lying about not having any memories but does remember 47 cent hamburgers at Carroll's and some guys who had names like Jungi, Bungi, Bear, Rat, etc.  A free drink to the person who remembers Tom's nickname.

Paul J. Ottaviano

      Paul lives in Brentwood, TN.  He has been married to Cheryl for 15 years and they have 2 children:  Jeff-14 and Keith-11.  Paul is President of International Clinical Labs, Inc. (not too bad for a kid from Seymour St. School).  Cheryl is a registered nurse who currently is on a sabbatical.  Fond memories include:  White Bridge, Pankos, Club Dickman, Trice's convertible, Hunter's Diner, The Imps, Mr. Zims, and Burn Rd. (how about a trivia bar contest?)

Ann Iaia Payne

      Ann lives in Auburn.  She and Tom have been married for 16 years and have 4 children:  Scott-14, Robin-12, Beth and Jill--6.  Ann is a tutor for Auburn School District and Tom is a Supv. of Merchandise and Inventory Control.  Ann is a published author of a book on teen parenting currently working on her Masters in Education. Ann and Tom met in grade school and were reunited the night before Nancy Kolp's wedding. (I leave details of the reunion up to Ann to explain)  Ann's fondest memory is of Tony V's lending library in his locker being replaced with children's books.  Ann looks forward to surviving Scott's teen years and is trying not to think about twin teenage girls that may turn out just like her sister Linda.  You remember --Ann was the quiet, studious one.

Steve Porten

      Steve, like the salmon in Alaska's swift streams, flashing and jumping in the sunlight, hasn't been netted yet.  he has, however, made a lot of trips upstream during the mating season according to his bio.  A combination gold miner/welder, Steve can be reached by SR #2061, Fairbanks, Alaska.  Steve's fond memory is of a time when Curt Trice gave him a fatherly talk about staying away from women.  Now whenever a woman gets close, Steve breaks out in a rash and sneezes.  Ah, the power of suggestion, Curt.

Dave Ragusa

      Dave gets a special award for the first bio returned.  Dave and Connie live in rochester, NY.  They have been married for 13 years and have 2 children:  Katie-7 and Kevin-4.  Dave is a vice Principal with the Webster school district and Connie stays at home and lifts weights while remodeling the house.  the couple met in Albion where Connie was a student and Dave a teacher.  Dave remembers his first days at East and knowing few people and having locker troubles until our class befriended him.  he looks forward to seeing everyone.

Dave Riggs

      Dave lives in Manlius, NY.  He and Jane have been married for 13 years and have a son Peter who is 4 years old.  Dave is an attorney with Bond, Schoeneck, and King, but his first love is golf.  Photography and travel keep the couple busy when Jane can get Dave off the links.

Liz Dean Romeling

      Liz lives in Nassau, NY.  She and her husband Michael have been married for 13 years and have a son, Matthew, age 7.  Liz and Mike met at a party and enjoy canoeing and cross country skiing.  She is a Social Work Supv. and Mike works for the NYS Education Dept.  Liz remembers falling asleep in English class.  She should have ahd some of Tony V's literature.

Mike Sargent

      Mike lives in Canandaigua, NY.  He and Linn have been married for 16 years and have a son Sean who is 2 years old.  Mike and Linn met in typing class where Guy Bovi introduced them to the finer points of sending notes to each other that were error free.  Mike remembers when nobody said, "Do you remember when...?"  He recently achieve an MBA degree and is researching a cure for baldness.

Vivian Goldman Schaar

      Vivian lives in Northbrook, Il.  She and her husband Richard have been married 13 years and have 2 children:  Leslie-9 and Eric-7.  After her parents spend all that money on an education, Viv became a professional car parker, although she sometimes teaches Nursery school.  Richard is a VP of Marketing with Jensen (education money well-spent, Dick).  Viv hopes to have year surgery and have 8 years removed from her life by the 25th.

Linda Pedley Schwartz

      Linda, your adorable 'peddles' lives in Rochester, NY (too close to Carlos to suit me!)  She and John have been married for 14 years and have 2 children:  Jonathan-8 and Jennifer-5.  Linda is a semi-retired Nurse Educator and John is a City Court Judge (now we know why she is retired).  They met in Albany while both in school and enjoy swimming and sailing.  She was last seen wandering around Marketplace Mall looking for the Nike salesman from 'The Big Chill'.

Lucia Wasileski Swallow

      Lucia lives in Farmington, ME with husband Peter and her 3 children and one on the way:  hannah-9, Eric-7, Molly-4, and a, hopefully, girl in June. Lucia is a counselor at University of Maine and Peter is a dentist.  They met at Lincoln Center where Lucia was singing (Beverly Sills has nothing on you, girl).  When she's not mountain climbing or XC skiing, Lucia remembers what a bunch of comedians we had in our class--all of whom have gone on to be slightly balding hamburger burners after a limited engagement in HR 201 (my footnote).

Bill Sterling

      Bill, after some 'hogwash' concerning being an 'honorary' member of the Class of '64, finally admitted to his real age of 30 (poop).  Bill has recently remarried to Judy and has two children:  Jimmy-17 and Sarah-2.  The couple has settled in the Syracuse area and Mill is Marketing Manager with Ginter Corp. while Judy is a secretary for Marshall, Testone, and Discenzia.  They enjoy golf, fishing, and the obvious (it rhymes with Mex).  Bill remembers when life was so simple and he had no worries and lots of sex (liar) and good times.  His goal is to keep baffling with the bull at the same level he is now.  If your bio is any example, you'll have a long, successful career.

Marcia Blowers Sypula

      Marcia should be writing this bio sheet.  I quote, "I remember when we froze at football games and roasted at Central at Basketball games; we actually studied in study halls; we all could recite Murphy's speech before he got on stage; (I like that one!) the beginning 'dress code'--kids today would choke; when gray hair wasn't distinguished--it was old!"  Judy Blume, look out!  Marcia lives in Pittsford, NY with Donald and 2 children:  Kristen-14 and Karen-111.  She is a registered nurse and Don is a research chemist.  They enjoy crafts on a very large scale and hope to survive their daughter's teenage years.

L Suzanne Gott Tennies

      Suzanne lives in Greenville, NY.  She and James have been married for 15 years and have 2 girls;  Heather-13 and Sarah-9.  Suzanne is an Assistant Nursery School Teacher and very active in Brownies and 4H while Jim is a Jr. High Teacher who helps pitch the tent.

John Tomandl

      John lives in auburn with his wife Carole and John-7 and Teddy-6. John and Carol have been married for 5 years and knew each other in high school.  John is a Water Conditioning Specialist and Carole is a registered nurse.  John enjoys scuba diving in his spare time.  He remembers when they built St. Alphonsus School, five Points had a fountain, Mr. Murphy taught math, and there was a barber shop under Auburn Savings Bank.

Virginia Joslyn Torrey

      Jinny lives in Skaneateles, NY.  She and Donald have been married for 6 years and have 4 children:  Chris-17, Jeff-14, Jennifer-12, and Jessica--4.  Jinny is a YMCA swimming instructor and Don owns WJW Assoc. LTD in Syracuse.  Jinny and Don are enjoying restoring an older home, but she refuses to have any memories of her high school years, probably due to the 'wild' girls she used to hang around with.

Curt Trice

      Curt is blaming all his escapades during the golden 60's on Porten, Ottaviano, Tringali, etc.  That's understandable as we all remember Curt as a shy, withdrawn boy who was always easily influenced by anyone who came along.  Now if you believe that, I've got a great deal on a gold mine in Alaska for you.  We can only hope Curt never goes into politics and someone researches his dull, boring high school years.  Curt and Judy have been married for 18 years and have 2 children:  Shannon-17 and Kelly-15.  Curt has been a plumber all these years which probably explains his expertise at getting you know what to go down the pipes.  Judy is a potter and enjoys tennis and hiking.

Bob Tringali

      Bob is still running all over Central New York playing his organ.  He still looks  the same as he did in high school, only shorter.  Bob is completely taking the fifth regarding any of the things he remembers from his high school years (he used to do that then, too).  Bob lives in Liverpool, NY.  In the last 5 years, he almost remarried and in the next 5, he hopes to be moved to Europe.  Remember when he and Steve starved their way through Europe one time?

Gregory VanScoy

      Greg was obviously contacted by Chuck U. because he ain't saying nuthing about nuthing.  He and Jane have been married for 14 years and have 2 children:  Treva-13 and Joshua-12.  Greg is a pipefitter and met Janey at the ÒPubÓ.  Hunting and fishing are the two great passions in their lives right now.

David Vanek

      Dave lives in Auburn with his wife Margaret of 12 years.  They have 2 children:  Shan-11 and Brian-8.  Cousin Jungi is a Civil Engineer with the City of Auburn.  Think about that one when you drive over the Lake Ave. Bridge (only kidding, cousin).  Margaret is a nursery school teacher.  After being beaten time and time again by Margaret, I quit running, however, this couple loves tennis, racquetball, and golf.  Steve P. wore a tie to the last reunion and Dave still remembers it.  Gene Hockeborn threatened to jump out the window when Hazel Humbert yelled at him while Dave was yelling, jump, jump!

Lee Vatter

      Lee, as we all remember, always respected law and order and hoped one day to put on the uniform and badge.  You could never tear him away from Car 54, Where Are you?, in the old days.  As you probably guessed, Lee is one of Auburn's finest.  he and Donna have been married for 15 years and have one son, Chris, who is 14.  Donna operates a computer and helps Lee clean all those fish.  Like a good cop, Lee has changed all the names of his high school escapades to protect the innocent.

John and Kathy Hasset Baran

      John and Kathy live in Loudenville, NY and have 3 children:  Kimberly-15, Jeffrey-13, and Michael-8.  John and Kathy met at the Rotary relays and nothing else was worth remembering after that.  John is a CPA and partner with Ernst & Whinney while Kathy collects antiques (now that you mention it, John's hair is grayer than mine).  John hopes to improve his golf game and Kathy hopes to get the kids through college.

Richard Lewis

      The 'Bear' and his wife Barb live in Coal, FL.  Barb is the one with the cute accent and Dick just sounds like southern NY.  An Ass't. City Mgr., Dick has founded his own consulting firm.  Barb is a Kindergarten teacher  They have 2 children:  Wendy-12 and Adam-6.  They remember fun  nights at 'Pears' and fun days at football practice.  Dick plans on being the next Governor of Florida by the 25th.
