I didn't actually graduate with the class. I did make it through most of the Jr year, and I did graduate, but from Republic High with my mom's foot buried clear to my shoulder blades. Today I'm thinking if I had a kid like me I would have spent the last 30 years in prison. I was probably more rebellious than most and it took a few years (OK more than a few) to figure out that life wasn't just a big party...read more

It has been a long time class 78. Sorry, I missed the class reunion. After high school, I worked at Phase Linear and then, Titan Corporation on 208th St (still there I think) where I became the floor foreman. I decided on a little adjustment and joined the Army in 1982 and still currently serve with over 20 years of service so far. I have been married for 16 years now to my wonderful wife, former Cynthia Evans of Miami, Florida...read more

Wow, at one point I was on the lost list. Imagine that, I still have the same phone number I had at the 10th reunion. I did not even know about the 20th one. Maybe I really was lost since I had just graduated from college a couple years before. I guess I was a late bloomer. I had all 3 of my children by the time I hit the college scene. I had to juggle class time, kids, horses, leading a 4-H group, housework, internships, and homework in a day's time...read more

Wow. To sum up 30 years of life…. One phrase does it, "What a long, strange trip it's been!" I have two wonderful sons Kelly(28) and Stefan(25) and my beautiful daughter Samantha Rose(18). At 38 years old, I packed up my little Ford Ranger, Samantha and all of my precious things and moved to Florida. I married Jack 9 years ago and we have a nice little farm with 2 horses, 3 dogs, 3 (sometimes 4) cats, a pig, a turtle and a fish...read more

Paul and I raised our boys in Snohomish. Paul Jr. is now 26, married and lives in Marysville. Tony is 24, married and lives in Arlington. We have one Grandson, Coby! He is 9 months old and the love of my life. (Grandma's get this…Paul thinks it's weird) We have owned our foundation business since 1989 now and moved it to Chelan with us almost 3 years ago. Both of our boys work with us and we now work on both sides of the mountains...read more

Wow the world sure has changed. But I would have to say I've had a good life. I've been married twice and divorced twice, no kids. I presently have a fiancee her name is Judy and she is great. After school I worked construction then went into the Navy for 4 years. After that it gets a little blurry. Partying a little too much. Some of the companies I have owned are:
Cool Rite Refrigeration for 24 yrs, Starlight Stables 5 yrs, Griffith Group 5 yrs, Cal Ran Corp...read more

Soon after graduation, I moved to Chicago where, on a blind-date, I met my husband! We got married in 1985, and lived in San Francisco for 2 years, and then suburbs of Chicago for 20ish years, and now we live near Raleigh, North Carolina. We have 2 wonderful girls; Jessie is 19 (a sophomore at NC State) and currently interning for the summer up at Univ of Virginia at the Med School ! and Sammie is 16 and having fun in high school... she also cheers, bowls, runs, and just has fun! I am a Skin Care Consultant with Mary Kay; and my husband Ed, works for John Deere... he is in the golf division, so he travels all the time!

It's great to read everyone's biographies and the pictures are great! Here's the Cliff Notes version of the last 30 years: I graduated from WWU with a degree in East Asian Studies and spent a year in Japan studying Japanese. I moved to Seattle, and worked in hotels, because no one else cared if I spoke Japanese unless I had a business degree. In my 20's, I traveled as much as I could, including a 2 month backpack tour of northern Europe and a visit with Kelli Trosvig in Liberia, Africa, where she was in the Peace Corps...read more

Wow! I am not sure that I can sum up the last 30 years and not have it be a novel. After graduating I went to C.W.U. and got my B.A. degree in Early Childhood Education and a few years later my M.A. in Reading. I met my husband Adrian while at Central and we were married in 1984 (24 years ago). We have 3 kids. Trevor is 19 and is attending the Art Institute of Seattle. Troy is almost 18 and is a senior at Auburn Riverside High School...read more

I live in Frisco, Texas, with my husband, Ron, and our 7 year old son, Jonathan. I also have three grown step-children Michael (35), Dan (33) and Mary (28) from Ron's first marriage. After college in Oregon, I joined the Navy. I didn't see the world, but I did have the opportunity to live in a lot of different and fun places including London, Washington D.C., Monterey, San Diego, Chicago (Ron's hometown) and even a tour of duty in Seattle...read more

Dear Friends,

Have 30 years gone by? It's hard to believe. I've enjoyed reading about your adventures and looking at your pictures, you all look so good. I've been married to the same great guy, Martin, whom I met at Central Wa. University. We live on Lake Stevens now but have lived overseas for six years. We were in East Germany the night "the wall" came down and we brought an interesting souvenir (our son Kai) home from our trip to Israel.

I've owned a business in Smokey Point for 15 years and recently we have a new interest...read more

I currently live in Spokane and work as a Lt in an area fire department, I also teach at the community college in the Fire Science division as an adjunct fire service instructor. I have 2 children a son and a daughter ages 21 & 18. I enjoy riding my motorcycle and try to make at least a couple of extended long trips a year. I wish everyone from the class a very happy and healthy life. If you ever find yourself on the dry side of the State give me a call I'm in the book. Great things about Spokane are tons of outdoor activities and no Seattle traffic.

Brian and I were married in 1980 and live in Marysville. We have two kids, Brianna (24) and Jason (21). Brianna graduated from the University of Washington and is working in Redmond. Jason will graduate this year from Pacific University and will be working at an accounting firm in Portland. We own auto glass shops in Marysville and Lynnwood and I work for an Engineering firm in Everett...read more

Shortly after we graduated I started working for the City of Lynnwood Public Works Dept. I recently began my 30th year of employment there and after 26 years in the Water and Sewer Division, I am currently the Foreman in the Street and Storm Water Maintenance Division. I have been witness to all of the immense changes Lynnwood has undergone since we were in school.

In 1986 I started operating my own part-time guiding business, Olsen’s Guide Service...read more

I never dreamed how blessed I would be in 30 years.

I was a bit of a nerd back at LHS (still am), never thought of traveling outside this great country of ours, dreamed of political aspirations, oh, and being the morning DJ on KJR.

That last part led me to a communications degree at Washington State University. I actually worked in radio for a time; although my last job in that field was in 1996 as a glorified accountant...read more

Alyson and I have 2 grown, married boys and one awesome grandson. I took him to his first Mariners Game in July, and I think he's hooked! I'm still running my foundation business (since 1989) and both boys are working with me. I would like to slow down and let them take over more so I can Fish, Water Ski, Ride My Harley and Snowmobile more. Alyson says retirement means "quitting a perfectly good job!", so she's hard to convince...read more

Since high school I have lived in many different states in the country. I have my own home theater business and have been working for myself since 1984. I now live in Avondale Arizona near Phoenix. I have been here for the last 2 years. I did try to go back home and live there for 3 years in Snohomish, but my California native wife could not stand the weather so we moved to Arizona. We love it here, and NO IT'S NOT TOO HOT! We have no children and like it that way...read more
