    Comments: Following graduation, I completed my bachelors and masters degrees in wildlife management. Been working as a wildlife biologist for ~20 years now and have been privileged to work in many states and several countries. When I'm not managing projects, I'm usually out hunting or fishing for whatever is in season. Spend my winters guiding deer and duck hunters and each spring I guide turkey hunters in several different states. Other times of the year I travel conducting wildlife management seminars. I'm still single and looking for the woman that can handle my extensive travels. I still fondly think of my days at French and truly enjoyed seeing many people at the 20th reunion in 2000. I'm hoping we have a 25th in 2005. Feel free to drop me a line anytime. Thanks for the memories!

    Comments: Didn't get to graduate from French in 1980 as I moved to Houston and finished up there. I now live in Rowlett, Tx. which is about 25 miles east of Dallas. I am married with one daughter who is now 12. I still travel to the area to fish Sabine lake at least 5-7 times a year. I'm in the disaster recovery business for large companies, company name is SunGard. It's an exciting business but very difficult at times. Worst thing I had to do was to fly to New York to support the World Trade Center disaster. I helped support 3 of our center up there and visited with many people that were in the towers. Don't want to do that again. Anyway, I didn't know that French was closed down. Don't remember too many names but have seen a few on your web site that I do remember. It has been fun recalling some fond memories of my time at French. Do you guys remember Carmuci, he drove a dodge daytona or superbee? He saved my butt from a few gang fights, was a good friend when I needed him. See ya ....

    Comments: I moved to California in '85, Oregon in '89, Raleigh in '01. I have a wife, a son 13 and a daughter 9. We are very happy. Moving around prevents long term friends so I often think of FHS friends. I missed reunions because I actually graduated from Silsbee (mistake). Would like to come to future FHS reunions, so call me! Seeing Mrs. Smallwood on the obituary list really hurts.

    Comments: UDATE: 01/03: I surfed in again after being gone for several years. My wife suggested that I post an update as things have changed considerably in the last 4 years. We're expecting our fourth child in January '03, and yes, I do now have a real job. I'm now V.P. of Sales and Marketing for General Box co. of Waycross, GA. Quite a long way from Gibson's in the Village shopping center. Feel free to e-mail, I would be glad to talk to any of my old friends.
    Remember the movie Revenge of the Nerds? That was me, but I turned out okay. Been married to a beautiful woman for 10 years & 3 kids, and she is definitely not a nerd. However, my son Brian (age 5) is nerdy just like dad, and my 13 year old stepdaughter still calls me the Professor. We have owned our own business for the past 8 years, and I guess I'm ruined forever for a "real" job. Folks from my class surely remember my Corvairs. Guess What? I still have three.
