William Stearns has been listed in the "Memory" column. This doesn't seem right. Does anyone know the whereabouts of Bill? I hope the reports of his demise have been greatly exaggerated.

Well Brillo you asked for an update... I meet Katie in Vail, CO ski-bumming for a couple seasons. Married in '76 (a bicentennial bride) We have 1 son Nick, engineering from U of MN, product development from Northwestern. Nick and Ashley meet at UMN, they came to IA for her Med school. She grad in 2017 and stayed in Des Moines to practice. Little scary these days as she's front line at the hospital. Nick is temporarily working/home schooling from a home office. We are hunkered down in house and relief baby sit as needed. As of this writing IA has 424 Covid-19 cases and rising rapidly. I retired and moved to Des Moines so Grandma could be close to our 2 grand daughters, now 6 & 3. We are really loving the move. After high school I worked about 8 yrs in the family golf car business, back to school and then 24 years in IT as a Systems Analyst. Finished with 6 years in my small business startup "Draught Line" selling, installing and maintaining draft beer systems in the Greater Milwaukee market. I sold the business to one of my employees in 2015. Today my card says "Retired Beer Guy". Things certainly do change. Love to catch up, Willie

Hey Barney, Hope you and Carol can make it back for reunion. Love to catch up... if we can leave the house by then. In the mean time perhaps a little more here than NC would be nice.

Hey Mel, good to see you join the fun

Hi Barb, Went fishing with a "Bird Legs" note. No bites, but then you did grow out of that moniker very nicely by the time we were seniors.

Hey Dennie, What ever happened to your 193? Chevy? You're the only kid I knew that had an "old time" car in HS. Always thought it was cool. I now have a couple Model A Fords, joined a touring club when we retired to IA, driving all over and meeting great folks.
