Graduated! College too. I think I don't want to list
my accomplishments; not out to impress anyone!! I am
who I am and that is as good as it gets! Writer,
Published, The Few, The Proud, the Native Californian!
Orgnized the Senior Prank (that was as good as it gets
too!!!!) Made forever friends since age 8, and in HS,
that's as good as it gets too! Two kids, Jodi RN,
Mark, Hotshot Crew Chief, USFS, I remember Alan
Ratzburg, the crack up of Gary Sheerer too smart to do
homework, the class clown and as smart as they get. I
remember, the politics by the faculty of two schools
joing together and MVHS class of 1962 "borrowing our
school" so we could watch the fights at brunch in the
commons. I remember the day Kennedy died, right before
lunch, in Spanish Class, I remember them excusing the
school and those of us without cars, walking that long
way home, when Permanente Big Wheelers roared down
Grant Road, in shock. I remember this generation that
changed a nation, mostly for the better and those who
sold out. I remmeber Viet Nam, losing my best friend,
and have his DFC, SS, BSM, AM and the ever lovin'
Purple Heart. I remember a Nation of change, big
change and here we are today. Seems like a rerun. I
remember passionatly getting the votes for my
neighbor, Nancy Tasista, and friend. I remember the US
OLYMPIC TEAM all out of our swimming pool, and I
remember Steve Weiss, the nicest guy in the world, the
laugher that came from Gary Greeney, the sadness that
came about Lorraine Lawton and Jeanne Demassa. I
remember graduation and us running out to change a
world. We did. We are those people that watched or
participated from the corner of Haight and Ashbury as
a world of peaceful kids, stabbed the establishment
and never looked back. It was the best time, it was
the worst time but it was in the end OUR TIME.
Hope all of you are good, and that we all now truly
GET IT. Hi Alan, Janet, Kristen, Nancy, Gail, Sue, and
the ever funny Gary Sheerer,Janet, Tom, Gary Greeney,
and Nancy
and Gail Tasista. And Hey Jim, how's it going?!
Oh yeah, Alan Ratzburg and I are married after dating
42 years ago!!!!!!
