I traveled extensively as a musician with several different singing groups. In
1976 I entered the ministry. Since that time I have served as evangelist
and pastor. I'm currently the senior pastor of a church
in Brunswick GA. I have a lovely
wife, Angel, and two sons, Jason
and Austin. Life has been good
and I hope all my "old classmates" are doing
well. It was great to find this website and see so many old friends. I have many fond memories
of Lowndes High, especialy the band, and Billy Martin.

I went in the USAF during
Vietnam, Feb.1975; was medically retired 1989, athritis and ulcers. I never went to
Nam; but as a Medic, I took care of them when they came back. Saw some terrible things. My Dad was never the same
after he came back. I went back to school on the GI Bill,
got my Paralegal Degree from Lake Sumter Community College; but I will never work for an attorney. They are all crooks!
I thought about being a school counselor because they helped me
so much; so I have about 3 years of psychology courses, too. Just need to add them all up and find out exactly
what I need to get a degree. Was married before and have a wonderful
27 yr old daughter. She was the Angel God gave me. Still waiting on grandkids; but
I work in the Church Nursery, so that helps alot. Dave and I have been together 11 years.
I have a truely blessed life. My husband is so good to me; but in previous relationships
it wasn't always that way. God saved me the "BEST" for last.
Right now, I am trying to decide
if I want to stay in Nursing or go into Real Estate, or Counseling.
Florida is really booming.
We have too many people coming down here; so Dave and I will probably be moving back
to Georgia in about 10 years. He is from the Ocala area and works for the City/Electric Dept. I told him he could
retire when our home is paid off. He's got 10 years or less. We live
in Ocklawaha, which is near The Villages. That place used to be 12 miles away. Now it's about
5. Them old farts are moving in on us! But wait, I'm an old retired
fart, too!! We are very
involved in the MVPA. We also have a Jeep Club, Just For Jeeps of Florida and my husband
is almost finished restoring a 70 AMX. He lives in the garage after
work building vehicles.
He is the "Jeep Man" mechanic around here. We have an M-715
he is going to build next.
I wanted a little blue AF Medic Jeep and he built me one. His son wanted an ARMY truck. We
have an olive green J-10 with all the army trimmings, except the machine gun. He loves building these vehicles,
so that is probably what he will do when we retire. We might just
have to go to Thomasville, GA and give Russell Deese some competition. Ya'll come
and see us!!
