First of all, I have two daughters and two sons and seven grandkids. I feel blessed. I'm retired after 30 years at Cargill Salt. I worked 25 years in Lansing, NY, and then transferred to Cleveland, OH for 5 more years. That's a long time under ground. While I was in Cleveland we bought a house which we just moved back into after we sold our home in Groton. My youngest son works for Cargill on the surface in Ohio.
While I was initially in Ohio, my wife, Martha, stayed in NY working at the Groton Bank. We are both retired now and together in Cleveland. I had three more jobs since retiring, but NO MORE. I am done. I've been singing all my life. I sang 20 years with a band and then spent 21 years as a DJ. I Recorded two albums available as CDs and tapes. If you'd like them, call me at 607-898-3894. The package of 2 CDs and 2 tapes is $30. I enjoyed seeing everyone at the reunion and singing for you.
We moved to Ohio in Oct. 2012. I'm currently recuperating from hip surgery (Jan. 2013), doing physical therapy, and I really feel great. I love it here in Cleveland. My younger son is here with his family. Other son is in NY and daughter in NJ.
It is great to hear from all of you.

After I finished high school in '61, I worked at GLF Feed Store for two winters. I then went into full-time dairy farming until 1991 when I sold the cows and started crop farming which I still do today. In 1991, I ran Excavation Eq for two years and then went into house construction for 15 years with two friends. I finally decided to slow down and enjoy life. 2010 brings another trip out to Sturgis, South Dakota, for motorcycle week.
My interests, and hobbies are wood working, restoring old Chevy cars and John Deere 2 cylinder tractors. I have been riding Harley-Davidson Motorcycles for the last 45 years.

Well, not much. I did live and work in Mesa, Arizona, and also worked in Tempe. I moved to Wisconsin and lived and worked for a different company. I went to California 3 or 4 times. I drove out there from New York and Wisconsin. I had a Brother and Son there. I retired from Emersion Power Transmission and work part time as a cleaner.
It is nice to hear from you.I really don't have a lot to say but through the years I moved a lot, worked on the road fixing machines so I didn't save much. P.S. I'm looking to buy or get a '61 high school Annual if someone has an extra one. Take Care Wayne D. Arthur |
