Wow, I haven't been lost, just living my life. I married shortly after graduation in 1969, and still I am married to the same guy. Chet was in the US Coast Guard when we married so we moved around a little, but settled for over 30 years, in Highland Lakes, NJ (Sussex County). I lost track of all of my friends over the years and would love to connect with some of them. I spent most of my working career in HR for a few different companies. It was what I loved the most. In 2007, I was asked to relocate to Maryland and join W. L. Gore & Associates (you know, GoreTex). Having no good reason to not take advantage of the opportunity, we moved to Cecil County, Maryland. It was a beautiful spot with great weather, but we were too far from family. Once I retired in September 2016, we decided to move closer to family in northeast PA. My husband, Chet, and I have a beautiful daughter, Nichole, and two grandkids, Katie 16 and Tommy 11. All three are the light of our lives. Right now I am still transitioning to retirement. I spend a lot of time decorating our new home in Lehighton, PA. I also have a collectibles booth in the Weissport Antiques Mall. I'm selling a lot of the items we have collected over the years as well as "picking" at flea markets, auctions, and yard sales. It's great fun!! I also have rediscovered my love of reading. After so many years of required reading, in school and at work, I lost interest in the great American novel. Now I can't stop...not a bad thing. Also, I have just started refurbishing and re-purposing some our furniture finds. We probably won't make the reunion in October, but I love that you have provided a spot to reconnect with old friends. I don't have any "THEN" photos readily available. If I get one or two scanned, I'll post one. |

Having gone on for an engineering degree from New Jersey Institute of Technology and an MBA from Pace University I've spent most of my career in Healthcare administration with some small organizations such as Mt. Sinai Medical Center, Columbia-Presbyterian and St. Vincent's Medical Cenetr (NY). I am now the Program Director for Healthcare Management at Iona College, Hagan School of Business and have a private business intelligence firm, Healthcare Intelligence. I'm fortunate to have two grown children, Bryan and Michelle, who collectively now have three three young sons. I can only imagine these are challenging times for all of us as we look forward to this anniversary. Regards to all |

| Comment: Had an entry level job with an international bank (yup, those were the good old days) on Wall Street for a few months after college, but hated the commute from Montvale. Decided to go to Europe instead and stayed a while. I now call Colorado home. I have a long commute to Denver from my home in rural Douglas County, so some things never change! Hope to be able to make the next reunion. | |

I have retired from teaching, after 30 + years, and have sold our home in NJ. We now reside in Tequesta Florida. John was also a teacher, and for many years after retiring, lived his dream of being a charter boat fishing captain on the Cape in MA. My son Thomas, graduated from The Citadel and is a retired Colonel in the US Army. He lives in VA, and he is married and has twin boys, presently in college. That makes me pretty old!!!! Think about our carefree days at the Hills! We were all so lucky to have grown up in that area. Small world, but I now live a few blocks from Joan and Dick Tice!

I have been married for 39 years to my husband Jim. We have two children -- a girl and a boy--and a beautiful 15 yr old granddaughter . I'm happily semi retired and enjoying life in the sunny South. Looking forward to the 50th reunion and have enjoyed seeing so many classmates at the annual Duke. Linda Mockel , Kathy Galloway and I have been getting together 3 times a year since we reconnected at our 35th reunion in Orlando. Like going back in time. |

I retired from BASF July 1, 2008 after 27 years. Denise and I have relocated back to Brownstown, Michigan from Summerville, SC to be closer to our girls. I have been doing seasonal work for H&R Block for the past 5 years - but I may have full retirement in my sights. Denise and I attended the 35TH and 40TH reunion but missed the 45TH. We are planning on attending the Duke golf outing next September (2016) in Myrtle Beach and the |
