Brief History: After graduation from PHS went to Texas Tech. Played volleyball for Tech for 2 years, graduated with a BS in History and PE in 1975 and a Masters in Education in 1976. Met Steve at our apartment complex while working on my masters. Married Steve September 25, 1976. Moved to Spearman where we built the house that we lived in until moving to Georgetown last summer where we built our present house. Taught gymnastics for 12 years in Spearman while also teaching school for 4 of those years. Leslie was born in October 1980. Quit teaching until Les was in third grade. Taught in Perryton for 8 years teaching history and coaching varsity tennis and JV volleyball. Return to Spearman ISD to teach Pre-AP and AP social studies at high school and coached Leslie her senior year to a state championship in tennis. Quit coaching after Leslie graduated. Leslie played tennis for Texas Tech for part of her college years. Retired from teaching in May of 2010. Moved to Georgetown in June ( lived in a motel for 45 days until house was ready) and have been enjoying being closer to Leslie and her family. They live in Round Rock. I am now playing tennis and golf again and also bridge and book club. Leslie says I am busier now than when I taught. Steve and I are still avid Tech fans and have season tickets for football and still go to some basketball games.

Current occupation:
 * Retired from Teaching High School Social Studies May 2010
 * Best career move? I have taught my entire career and coached volleyball and tennis

Most embarrassing moment in high school? Too many to name ---one would be the time we got caught coming back late from lunch at Burger King for Coach Lynch's government class

Most embarrassing moment since high school? Not going there

Best memory of living in Phillips and Phillips High School? How much fun we had ---the park, Phillips Free Fair, Football games, the dances and high school clubs, hanging out at Post, Senior Trip tp Colorado Springs
