Class of '69
Hi Gang! For those of you who remember or don't care to remember, I have always been a Luzianna guy. Right after graduation I moved back to New Orleans with my Dad and his family. Over the past 30 years, many things have happened in my life. A year at LSU, Kicked out for a semester because of too much playing. Then 4 years in Air Force, (70-74). Luckily didn't go to Nam! Meet my first wife during military days and had our first son, Brian Robert. Lived in Calif. for 5 years after discharge and then moved to Mississippi in Dec. 1979. Karen is the EX that those of you met at the 20th Reunion. Divorced in 1980. Ex went back to CA taking my then 2 year old son whom I have not seen since then.
Lived in Pike Co., MS for 3 years as a Deputy Sheriff, then moved down to New Orleans for good. While living in MS worked and went to school and finally earned my Degree in Business Admin in 1983.
For the next 2 years I was single looking for miss right. Glad to say that I found her in 1985 and we were married in 1986. She has one son, from previous marriage, Lucas now 18, and then there is my son, Brian, now 22, and then there is OUR son, Paul now 12. So there is Her's, Mine, and Ours.
With exception of 2 1/2 years in FL on a company transfer, have bee back in New Orleans all the rest of the time. When I gave up my job in Fl , we decided to move back HOME to New Orleans and have been here since. Don't plan on leaving again, UNLESS We win the Lotto. LOL.
After years of looking for just the right occupation to best utilize my talents I finally found one in Nov. 1996. I am the Manager for a Mom and Pop Mail Service in the Uptown Section of New Orleans. Prytania Mail Services(similar to Mail Boxes Etc.). Very, Very happy and contented and hope to be here a LONG time.
