What has your life been like during the pandemic and what would you tell future generations?

Life has been wearing a mask and staying 12 feet from people. No social events except for playing golf. No travel or photography. Don't be part of the COVID problem, be part of the solution.

What have you been up to since you graduated?

If you have traveled, where have you been, what did you like best, and why?

Japan, Taiwan, Israel, Korea, Jordan, Egypt, Hawaii, Mexico, Jamaica, Aruba, Puerto Rico, Bahamas, Canada and most major cities in America.
Isreal was the best. Birthbplace of Jesus Christ and Christianity.

What do you like to do in your spare time?

Playing golf, travel and photography.

What did you think you would do when you finished high school and what did you actually do?

Wanted to finish high school, join the Navy, go to "A" School to become an Aviation Electrician, exit early with a medical disability, use the GI Bill to go to Wichita State University, obtain a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, work at Boeing and buy a house without getting married. I did it all but wish I would have gotten married.

What is a favorite school story or memory?

I remember putting ketchup on my shirt to simulate blood. Told the Security Mrs Hicks I was stabbed. She freaked out. It was a very Bad joke.
What is the biggest thing you would do differently if you went back to your time at West?

I would include golf along with wrestling and football.

What did you always want to do that you haven't done yet?

Find family member on my mother's side in Tokyo, Japan where I was born.

Any words of wisdom?

Remember that the false christ comes to earth before the real Jesus Christ appears on earth.
