I've lived in Palm Bay, FL since finishing my Masters (Mech Eng) in 1984 at the University of Iowa. I've been working at Harris Corporation ever since... mostly in the 'Engineering/IT' field.
Married in 1982, Mary (an Iowa girl!) and I now have 3 grown children. We both enjoy sports/fitness, reading, and are involved in our local church and Christian school: I coach tennis --no wrestling team!-- and Mary coaches Tennis and girls basketball.
Was great to see Mark & Keely, Tim & Karen in Florida on Jan 1st (2018)! On Sept 10... I decided I *will* make the 40th reunion. I'm looking forward to seeing my 1978 classmates!

Hey Bob! I just today decided to come up to the reunion, then was disappointed to see that you were not coming. Any chance you can? At least to the free Friday evening gathering? It's been too long (and sorry to have missed your wedding). Hope we can connect. -Don
Mike and I grew close in Jr High school, mostly through baseball, boy scouts, music and drama. He was a great friend and we had lots of laughs and memorable times. Mike was a gifted athlete : a perenial little-league all star (the last couple of years with Mark Harris, JT Feeney and me), and QBed our Freshman football team. He then took up Tennis, and even gave my parents lessons through the city. My entire family loved Mike.
Of course Mike also loved music and drama (remember 7th grade 'Pirates of Penzance'?). I remember cutting up with Mike in 8th grade music class & choir with Mr. Treahy. Fond memories, all, Mike. You are missed.
