A big thank you to the folks who took the time to set up this site. Nice job and I do appreciate it.

Wish I could make the reunion but unfortunately I'm not going to be able to make it. Therefore, it's up to everyone else to have a great time.

Moved to Idaho a couple years after graduation. Worked at a local hospital as a secretary for the Business Manager. Met my husband and married in 1986. Had a baby the next year and took early retirement to become a mom.I have tried several part-time jobs, but keep going back to the Domestic Engineer job that has much better benefits.

I graduated from the Air Force Academy in 1984 and married Lorna a short ten days later. We moved to Lubbock, TX where I went through pilot training and then stayed to be an instructor pilot in the T-38. We left Lubbock in 1989 and moved to Yorktown, VA where I flew F-15s and got to see many other parts of the world -- some not so great. Our sons were born while we were stationed in Virginia, and what a great change that was in our lives. We moved to San Antonio, TX in 1994 to teach others how to be instructor pilots for the Air Force, and finished my Masters in Aeronautical Sciences. It was time to move again in 1996, so we ended up in Naples, Italy where I was a NATO staff officer for a couple of years and got to spend most of my time in Bosnia, Croatia, Kosovo. 1998 took us to Montgomery, AL where I attended Air Command and Staff College for the Air Force (a one year school of misery). Then it was off to Florida for a few months of re-training in the F-15, and now we are settled in our new home here in Okinawa, Japan. We have moved a total of 15 times and it never gets any easier.

Liz and I were married in 1984 after graduation from MSU. We moved to Washington, then New York, then Oregon, and finally to Oklahoma about 2 years ago. I have worked for the same company (Fort James Paper Co.) the whole time and am currently an operations manager for our recycling mill in Muskogee, OK. We have stayed active in music and perform regularly in Church, and run our kids around to activities all over.

Well so much has happened since High School, I got married and divorced, joined the Marines as a Military Policeman(woman), remarried, had Jess, divorced remarried and had Cait and Bailey, divorced again. You know the old saying try, try again, well I did, but have finally found that I am deleriously happy as a single mom. I've been living in Southern California since 1984 working in human resources for eight years, then taking over the operations of a security company for five years. We became San Diego Padre fans and loved the sund and sand. Life was becoming too hectic so I slowed it down a little and the girls and I started a home crafting business about three years ago, so I could spend more time with them, it's been great fun. My father passed away in August and when we returned for the funeral (for the first time in 12 years) I realized how much I missed the Northwest and longed for snow country, so we returned to California packed up and relocated to Cle Elum, WA to be closer to my sister Lori and her family. It was the best choice we could have made, we love it here, it's a small town and everyone knows everyone, sort of reminds me of Bozeman back in the old days! Jessica is learning to drive, what an experience, I thought I was a bad driver! All the girls play softball and Jess and Caitlin were on the basketball team this year. Caitlin sings in the choir, Jess plays clarinet and Bailey plays the flute, I've hooked up with my step brother's band and fill in on keyboards occasionally. We've spent the past couple of months skiing, snowmobiling and snowboarding and basically just enjoying life thinking it couldn't get any better than this. Then the opportunity of a lifetime opened up for us, my sister Lori and I bought a restaurant, we are busy renovating it now and will be opening in May at the peak of the tourist season. We are so excited to be working together and for ourselves, it's a true family business with all the kids and we've named it in memory of our father "The Poor Sister's Cafe". We are anxious to to get started and are confident it will be a huge success as we have our fathers business sense. The last 20 years have been a true rollercoaster ride, and I've enjoyed every minute of it, I've had the opportunity to live all over the U.S., meet great people, experience and live life as I always wanted to and now I'm thrilled to be slowing down and enjoying my family. I am hoping to make it to the reunion, however, with the new business I may not be able to. It's been great getting in touch with all of my old friends and hearing what you are all doing with yourselves these days. The committee has done a great planning job and the website is wonderful. Thanks to all of you that have worked so hard.

 

Wishes

Friendship, fun and laughter.

Well, it kind of looks like all I did was have children. (ha ha). However, I graduated from EMC in 1985 with a B.S. in Human Services, have worked in an administrative position in that field ever since, been divorced once and am currently married and yes, have five children.

Wishes

Since I didn't attend the 10 year reunion, to be honest, I hardly remember anyone. I'm just looking forward to seeing people and reminiscing about highschool and what's happened in our lives since. As far as what I would like to see at the reunion, I can't think of anything brilliant or specific. I just know I won't be golfing.

Who

I'll know them when I see them.

When we were first married, Rob and I spent 3 1/2 years working with a program called VisionQuest out of Tucson AZ. We worked with juvenile delinquents on a Wagon Train, that traveled across the Western U.S. Yes, we really had wagons pulled by mules and the kids and staff also rode mustangs that had been broken in another phase of the program. This experience planted in Rob and I, a desire to work with troubled teenagers, and later we helped found and get 2 other programs started. For the past 5 years I have worked in my children's school, and enjoy it thoroughly! We spent 10 years in Spokane, WA, where Rob had our log home business. We have been trying for about 8 of those years to come back to Montana, and were so thankful when the doors opened for us to move to Ennis, MT. We have spent the past 5 months totally remodeling the inside of an older 4 bedroom home on 3 acres here in Ennis. Now the work on the outside begins. For all of you who have left Montana, you'll understand when I say there's nothing like the Montana big open majestic sky, and seeing the sun at least once every day!! We are soooo happy to be back!

Wishes

I'm most looking forward to our time at Nancy (Biggs) Roys farm! I hope that is still in the plans!

After the ten year reunion I decided to stay in Bozeman and find a job. I ended up getting a job at Waddell & Reed. Just months into the job I ran into Rob and we got together to talk about financial planning.  We had a date that next weekend, and we got married ten months later. I  took over managing  The Bozeman Athletic Club. Not even a year into that, Rob was transferred to Missoula. I loved it there! I went to work at a health club doing massage therapy. We were only there 9 months when he got transferred to Anchorage. I am now doing Massage Therapy full time and I work in a nice steak house a couple nights a week.  About 4 months after moving to Anchorage, Robs 3 kids came for a six week visit.... it's been over six years now and yes...I still see them in my living room. They are great kids! for being a blended family we have done very well. Larissa is the oldest and she will be going off to collage this summer. I already feel the pangs of empty nest. Never in a million years did I ever think that I could grow so attached to kids I didn't even birth.  I am currently training to run the Honolulu marathon in Dec., and Rob and I will both be going back to school in the fall. BUSY LIVES!!
I look forward to seeing all of you! Shari (Sharon) Veltkamp Tate
