RUHS Class of 1967

I would like to thank everyone that worked so hard to get our 40th Year Reunion done in a manner that was GREAT. I've live in Central Oregon all but 9 years of my life. I wouldn't trade it for anything. The best years of my life was going to school and having some of the greatest friends.

Wade Clark and I got married in Aug. 1966 and we had a son named Clay which he is now 40. Clay has given me 4 wonderful grandchildren 3 granddaughters and 1 grandson. Clay lives at North Pole, Alaska and he is in the Air National Guards. Clay's been in Alaska since 1986. The time really does get away when your kids are the same age as to when we got out of school. In 1972 we (Wade and I) had Traci and she lives in Wellsboro, PA and she has given me 3 wonderful grandchildren, 2 granddaughters and 1 grandson. Like most of us I was one of many (that I found out) that took not 12 years to Graduate it took me 14 years and I'm so glad that I did.

In 1977 I found out that I had Multiple Sclerosis. I was told that I wasn't going to walk and be confined to a wheelchair. I told the Dr's that I wasn't going to be in a wheelchair and that I had 2 small children at home that need me so as some of you could see that I'm doing quiet well.

Wade and I got divorced in 1991 but I left him 1986 and by the time 1988 came around my MS was going into remission and every day I thank god that I can get out of bed and walk.

Some of my hobbies when I was younger was taking my son (Clay) motorcycle racing every weekend until he Graduated from High School. I also raced a 1964 GTO and other cars as well. None I just bowl and play some golf. I belong to the Redmond Soroptimist Club and right now I'm the Northwest Regional and District 2 Rep for Life without Violence, go figure after all the abuse I got from Wade when we were dating and even after we got married. I guess when your young and in love all common since goes out the door. So now I get to help other ladies and they're family find the help that they need to get out of the relationship that they're in.

In 1996 I married Charlie Trainor and we've been doing a lot of traveling and hope to continue doing. Paula Kratz, it was so great to see you after all this years, and we could still laugh at some of the thing that we did in school. John Baer, Diana Saunder Dollarhide, Mike Griffin, you guys out of all of us I gotten figure out who you were.

At the dinner on Saturday, Diana Saunder Dollarhide came up to me and told me that I could give out her address home and email along with her phone number just in case some of us would like to keep in contact with her. Diana Saunder Dollarhide 1142 East Lake Dr. Mose Lake, Washington 98837 her phone is 509-765-3724 and email address is dbld@gemsi.com

Hope to see all of us in 10 years.

Thanks again for the great job you all have done and I plan on keep checking the Blog to see if anyone else has post something.
