Click to enlarge  After 35 years in education, I retired in 2003 from my role as assistant superintendent with ECISD. Since retirement I have been actively involved in the Permian Basin Master Gardeners, volunteer work within the community as well as church, and continuing to quilt at every opportunity. We have transformed our back yard from traditional "West Texas Bermuda grass" to a Xeriscape garden with over 90 varieties of plants. We have five grandchildren (all living in Texas) with whom we visit frequently. Both our boys are great husbands and fathers as well as highly skilled in their professions. Married 45 years in August, Roy and I enjoy the freedom to travel at times other than July only as was the case for so long. Along with several of my five sisters, I travel to quilt shows and exhibits on a regular basis. This continues to be a real blessing. Updated 08/30/04.

Click to enlarge  Merita and I are celebrating our 45th anniversary this year. The other highlight of my year has been my retirement from my 32 year administrative career at Odessa College. Retirement is great! We've already had three of our five grandchildren come spend a week with us and we are looking forward to spending more time with all our grandchildren. Both our sons and their families live in Texas, so it's not a problem to visit frequently. Since retirement I have been involved in some of Merita's Xeriscape gardening projects (and I expect more of this!)and we have both increased the level of volunteer work in a breakfast ministry we've been involved with for 17 years as well as other community volunteer efforts. Again this year we plan to attend the annual reunion of crew members of the destroyer on which I served while on active duty in the Navy. I plan to be a little more careful this year at the reunion than I was last year. It was so much fun I almost shipped over! The only thing that stopped me was the requirement to shave the beard...

Cliff, I am an OHS graduate of 1958 and attended our reunion last weekend. As a result, I logged on to your OHS 1959 web site in hopes of finding a long, lost friend - John W. Hollingsworth. Well, I called the telephone number in your web site and was absolutely blown away. His wife informed me that Johnny had died in 1996 of cancer!! I thought you'd want to pass it on. You can confirm at the number listed on your web site. Thanks - and good luck on the reunion!! George W. Hollis, 9310 Lamerton, San Antonio, Texas 78250, ghollis@texas.net

I am now an Accounts Receivable Analyst for a major personal communications corporation.

I have 4 beautiful step-daughters, 2 wonderful daughters of my own, 9 grandchildren (the oldest of which graduated from Texas Tech in 1998), and 1 great granddaughter. Not bad for starting out as an only child! My youngest daughter and her 2 precious daughters are currently living with me so things are not dull around my house very often. I love browsing through antique shops, visiting historic and scenic Texas, and GOOD music-Acapella Choir did have a positive effect on me! Update 1999.
