Comments:

I Started college at Idaho State University where I played Basketball and Tennis.I Transferred to Boise State where I graduated with a B.A. degree in Social Science and a Teaching Certificate.

I started teaching at Borah High School in 1970. Taught History for 32 years and coached Basketball and Tennis. I retired from Coaching in 1984 and started working at the Plantation Country Club part time.
I try to spend a lot of time with my 13 grandchildren. Six of my own and 7 step grandchildren. I went back to coaching tennis at Borah H.S.this last year and had a very rewarding year coaching my two grandddaughters.

School Story:

Don't ever let your big brother give you a haircut. I was a 9th grader at OHS and my big brother Chuck came home from college for the weekend. He heard that I was getting a hair cut the next week and he said" let me cut your hair as it will save mom some money". He got some clippers and asked me, "what kind of hair cut do you want."

I said, "I wanted a crew cut." I said, "have you ever done this before?" He said, "no, but I have watched people do it and how hard can it be." When He was finished be said, "dont look in the mirror for a couple of days and it will be fine." I looked in the mirror in horror. The hair on the left side of the top of my head was gone. He had cut the hair down to my scalp and on the right side the hair was almost over one half inch high. I looked like I had a lopsided head. Needless to say I wore a hat to school for a couple of weeks.

Happy Birthday - young man. I'm just a bit younger. Noticed Borah High School - we played games with them many years ago. Hope all goes well with you and yours. For me, I now live in Walla Walla, Wa. I attended the U of Oregon and ran track for Coach Bowerman until a leg injury stopped me. I did have the chance to run on Hayward Field - named after my Grandfather Earl's track coach.Have 2 kids and 3 grandkids. Wife Sandi I met on a blind date on Friday the 13th of November, 1964. Stay busy and healthy.
