Sally, I'm not sure where you are going in Florida, but it is going to be 81 in Estero (SW Fla) today. Golf and the beaches are great. Come on down!

Well, thank you, Ken. It's not until next week, but my wife celebrates for a week. Maybe I should start now!

looking good, Bill!

From the "other" Wayne. Goodness, I think we go way back to grade school. What great memories.

Hey, Kemp, I'd recognize you anywhere!

Hi Connie,

I looked thru our classmates living in Florida. Larry Ellis lives in Estero, as do I (behind Coconut Point), but I have a Bonita Springs address. There aren't that many degrees of separation, are there?

After Fairmont, I earned degrees at U.C. and Xavier. I then took a job at a Cincinnati based manufacturing company. For the next twenty years I worked in the automotive side of the business. We made parts for car companies around the globe.

That took Pam and me to the Michigan cities of Grosse Pointe, Traverse City, Birmingham, and Hillsdale before returning to Cincinnati. After a few years, the company changed ownership and I/they decided to retire early. I haven't looked back!

We live in Bonita Springs around 8 months per year. We also have a Cincinnati condo for the summer which makes it convenient to visit kids and grandkids in Michigan and Chicago. Besides trying to improve my deteriorating golf game, I am on a couple of boards and do some charity work.

Life has been good and we know how very fortunate we have been. I hope we get a great turnout this September. I hope to see you then.
