Comments:

Greetings everyone. Sandy and I have been enjoying so much of the good life the last five years I don't know where to start. Both daughters and their husbands live close by which means we are invaded by three grandsons 10, 8 and 5, who have Nana Sandy under their control at all times. We still have horses but we haven't been doing to much riding. However, we're turning into snowbirds by going to San Jose del Cabo in January and sailing the Caribbean in February on a four master. I still play with toys - radio controlled racing planes, shooting at ducks, sporting clays, even went elk hunting with a rifle I won at a DU banquet (didn't get a shot, but it was a great time). Also, we have a new/old toy, a '96 Vet convertible for cruising. We sold our mechanical contracting firm a couple of years ago. I'm now a part time consultant, if you can believe that. If things were any better I couldn't stand it. Looking forward to seeing everyone.
Dave

Royce, Dave and I missed your birthday...so sorry! Hope it was a great one. How did we get this old so fast?! Dave's going to dialysis 3x's a week and that botches up our schedule, but we're starting to get used to it. Hope this finds you well. We both miss the Class Reunions, was a great way to catch up and renew friendships. So appreciate Terry keeping this website up for everyone. Keep in touch! Sandy & Dave

Ron, Thank-you for the birthday wishes. Yep, Dave took me to one of our favorite restaurants (Rodisio Grill...Brazilian food) and plied me with food, drink and flowers. Wish we were still doing the Reunions...it was fun catching up and seeing all of you. This getting older is a good thing, but "they" sure lied when they said it was The Golden Years. Gotta be strong! Hope you, Helen and family are well. Thanks again for the b-day wishes, it means a lot.

Hi Ryans! Thank-you for the birthday wishes...yep, 39th!! We're hanging in there, as Dave likes to say, and our family is doing well. Unfortunately Dave has to have dialysis 3x's a week which pretty well does in those 3 days for anything else, but he's handling it well. I'm well and hoping for another decade or two with him. Very selfish I know. None of our grandsons (we have 4 - ages 8, 19, 22 & 24) are married, so no great grandchildren as yet. We still live in our home of +54 years, tho most of our friends in our age group are in retirement homes or worse....sad. Seems like a lot of the Gering alums are doing much better....must have been something in the air and/or water you grew up with. So enjoy reading about everyone when they post. Can't thank you enough for this website, Terry.
Stay well and give my love to Nancy.

Nancy, Time flies by waaaay to fast at this age! Hope you had an amazing birthday! Dave and I really miss the Class Reunions and I miss getting to know such nice people better. We're enjoying retirement but wish we still had the health and energy of 10 or 20 years ago. "They" lied when they told us these were the Golden Years! Keep telling our younger family members to enjoy traveling and "doing" now, as they're in the Golden Years. I think our years should be called the Wishing We Had Done It Sooner years! Anywho, hope you're enjoying your family and friends and making even more memories for these days of "wishing"! Give Terry our love. Sandy & Dave

Happy Birthday, Terry! It's good to be an Old Man...I find myself one of only a few close male friends still standing. So enjoy that birthday!!! Wish we still got together for the Reunions. They meant a lot. Have a wonderful Christmas and holiday season with Nancy and your family. Sandy said to be sure to include her in wishing you birthday & Christmas greetings.
