James A "Jim" White
We hope all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We did in Illinois (Scott AFB) with our son and family. Next week will find us in Seattle and the following week back in Palm Springs.
Will you share with your classmates what is going on in your life? I really feel that many classmates have dropped out of touch because they do not hear enough from you. They are tired of the Jim White blog, as I would be. Only six classmates, including me, have signed onto the class site in the past seven days. Think about it. Also, if you have contact with other classmates, bring us up to date with those too bashful to tell us what is going on, such as:
- TERRY BOONE went to South America recently. Sometimes I think he has more excursions than Fed-Ex.
- BOYCE McFARLAND is getting pretty good on the guitar and is amazing when you think he is a 70+ year old teaching himself.
- DONNA BURKENBULE is working hard preparing her Ruidoso home for sale and, sadly, will soon be caretaker for her sister who is having memory issues.
- BILL SLOANE will soon be going to Austrailia and other locations.
- LAURIE SHUEY ANDERSEN'S son, David, brought his wife and Laurie's youngest granddaughter from Washington, D.C. to have Thanksgiving. If anyone knows a nursing home caretaker seeking additional hours, let us know. Laurie needs more help, especially on weekends.
- JILL WEBSTER REED is about the same. Our hearts are still with she and H.D. as they go through this memory care decline. By the way, H.D. is volunteering out at D/FW so you might see him there sometime.
- MARDI GONYEA NICKLIN is still dreaming about her recent trip to the beaches of California and would like to live there.
- ROGER CARL has not had any assignments lately (he teaches English in foreign countries) that I know of but he did report on one trip on this site.
TOMMY HOLLINGSHEAD use to check in but has not lately and the number we had for him is disconnected. Folks, do not make it difficult to reach you, find you. Update your profile .... please. PETE GARTON did not pick up my call but would you? An unknown, possibly Spam, number from Seattle? MARIANNE COONS McCULLOUGH, you have been way too silent and you know more than most what is going on. EVERYONE, what do you have planned for the Christmas holidays?
