    I remember sitting in Mr. King’s class of my senior year thinking I would never be divorced.  Guess what I was.  I also saw women who were just a little bit over weight and swore I would never look like that.  Ha Ha!!  It’s really wonderful to gain knowledge and mature.  What seemed so important then is no longer.
   I have two children, grown and on their own.  Both are doing well. Kevin lives here in Springfield and works for Qwest and also deals in real estate some.  He's got himself a Sprint racecar and is waiting to be able to race in Cottage Grove. Kimberly is doing very well.   Kimberly lives in San Diego and just bought herself a condo.  God has blessed her with a wonderful job.  She works for two commercial real estate brokers, who can’t live without her.  She gets all of their presentations ready for them and gets all the information they need.  She’s also leaving for Paris to visit a friend she went to school with and was in college with. 
   Both of my parents are gone.  My Mom died just a year and a half ago.  It's still hard. I took care of her for the last four years of her life.  I feel so privileged to have had all that time with her.  She was someone very special.  I miss her.
   I'm now working for Visions Technology In Education doing sales.  I've been with them since January of 2000.  Waiting to see what God would have me do for the rest of my life.

   I have 2 children.  I have 2 granddaughters ages 21 and 7.  The 21 year old is expecting in March.  Her first and our first GREAT grandchild.  It is a boy.  That really makes me feel old.  Is due 4 days after my birthday so I'm hoping it will be 4 days early.  Nice birthday present.  I will have to travel to Montana to see them.
   I have worked for the same company for the last 31 years.  I started as a jack of all trades and have worked myself up to being in charge of managing the computer system.
  My company (WVCO) purchased a new software package and computer system last year.  I have since been going to school to learn it and to teach others.  I was (still am) one of the core team members.  We went live on the new system on February 1, 2001 in the northwest (Eugene & Medford).  A total of 4 sites plus corporate.   It was a "BIG" success.  It took a lot of hours and team work to pull it off but we did it.  I was so elated when I went home that first night I could have shouted from the mountain tops.
   We are moving forward now to implement our southwest sites.  One in Alexandria, Louisiana and one in Conyers, Georgia.  I will be doing traveling in April, May, June, July and our go live for there is August 1st. I have already told my boss I have to be home for the 10th and 11th.  He
said it shouldn't be a problem.
   After we finish up that install Willamette Valley Company will be complete.  Then we get to start on our subsidiaries.  We have one in Idaho, one in Canada with 2 sites, one in Louisiana (a big undertaking) and one in Chile.  Hopefully the owners of the company will not buy up any more acquisitions until we are finished.  I think our work is laid out for us for a couple of years.  Is that job security?   I also still have to keep the users happy on the old system.  Dual jobs but not pay.
   It has been a big learning experience and goes to show you are never to old to learn something new. 
   Not sure when I will be retiring.  I really like my job and the company I work for.  And the money and benefits.
   Hope to see you all in August.
