Hi Bucs! Like everybody else said, "Has it really been 30 years?" It's a blast catching up on everyone's life adventures...we sure weren't a boring group! Most of you probably remember Forest Jones (BHS '78). We were married for 13 years and have a wonderful 12 year old daughter Anna Marie. He lives nearby and things have worked out well. I've been remarried for 3 years to a wonderful guy, Gary Wall---Glenoaks graduate but I think I'll keep him. He's wonderful and is great with Annie. Funny part is that his sister is Linda Lott...remember girls' coach Lott from BHS? Before he asked me out he checked all of Linda's old yearbooks for "info and pictures"...and yet, he still married me... Hey where are Pam Ellender and Sharon Ellis and the rest of our motley crew? See everyone soon!

From Louis:
Is it 30 years already?  It seems like we just had 20 year reunion yesterday and then I remember that my youngest daughter, Jade, is already 10 years old.  Wow, that was some reunion. :) 

I thank God for the love of my life and wife of 23 years, Ana, along with my 4 lovely daughters:  Jessica, Jennifer, Tiffany and Jade.  Jessica and Jennifer are rooming together at St. Norberts College this year.  It is so cool to be 20 minutes away from the campus. 

Ana still has her Real Estate business that she owns and operates in: Baton Rouge, Baker, Zachary and other surrounding towns, so we still keep in touch with what is going on in Cajun Country.  I miss the crawfish boils, cajun cooking and spicy foods.  Even the SuShi tastes better in Baton Rouge, from what I am hearing. 

I have been working for Georgia Pacific Corporation, going on 20+ years now.  First at Port Hudson mill for 10 years in Engineering, Maintenance and Reliability and then Corporate Reliability Improvement for 6.5 years ( 2 years of 6.5 was with G-P Europe: Bolton near Manchester England, Bridgend Wales, Nokia Finland and Paris France.)    Green Bay Wisconsin as Operations Manager for 2 sites for 2 years, Savannah as Converting Operations Manager for 1.5 year while commuting back and forth to Green Bay.  Now I am back in Green Bay in a corporate job, but this time I don't have 650 people that I am responsible for.  I am road warrioring 50% of the time to different mills throughout the USA.  And if that isn't enough traveling, every summer, Ana and I bring the kids to visit Ana's family in Fortaleza, Brazil for 2 months.  This summer, we fixed up and converted my late father-in-law's beach house in Prainha into a nondenominational church, partnering with IBC, a large church in Fortaleza.

God is a big part of our family and we are so grateful for our salvation through Jesus Christ, and everything that he has pulled us through during the good times as well as the tough times.

I am looking forward to returning to my home in Baton Rouge, for a while to meet everyone again. 

God Bless you 

Louis

From Ted:

Thanks to the organizing committee for letting a non-grad join the party.

After moving to the San Francisco Bay Area my junior year, I finished high school at Monte Vista High School in Danville, CA.  It was okay but certainly no school spirit like Broadmoor.

Got my BA in Theater Arts from UCLA and planned to become a rich and famous film actor until I discovered I hated camera acting as much as I loved stage acting.  Ooops!

Tried law and business before finding my true calling, teaching.  Bet that's a big surprise to a lot of you. ; )  Don't make quite as much money but I have a lot more fun.

Picked up a Masters in Economics and Entrepreneurship along the way at University of Delaware (feel free to ask, "Why Delaware? " at the reunion).

I now teach Web Page Design, Digital Video Production, Computer Programming and Entrepreneurship at a suburban high school just north of Los Angeles.  I get to help kids and feel like I'm making the world a little better place.

I'm married to a better woman that I deserve and have three great kids who love me despite my corny jokes.

From Duayne:
30 years?  I'm just the average joe, working hard everyday.  Baton Rouge has been good to me, although if there is a " retirement " in my future I might look elsewhere.  I now live in Zachary with my wife, 7 horses, 11 dogs and a pig.  I'm part of a small riding group called Zachary Christian Riders and the Thursday night practices are therapy for me.  If any one has horses and intrested in riding, contact me for more information.  Life is great and I'm looking forward to catching up with many old ( middle aged ) friends.

From Kelly:
I once was a "lost" classmate, but now am found! Thanks to Wanda, I now know about the reunion.  I'm thrilled that the committee took the initiative to organize it!  Thanks!

After I graduated from LSU in '83, Mike (who I started dating our senior year at Broadmoor) and I married in 1984 and moved to Longview, TX for a short while.  We lived in the Charlotte, NC area for 18 years, and then moved to St. Louis (Wildwood), MO for another 5.  Last year, we moved to Columbia, MO (home of the "fake" Mizzou Tigers!).  Mike and I have two girls, ages 15 and 12, and after years of staying home with them, I have now returned to teaching full time.  I hope that Mike and I will be able to attend the reunion.  I have had a great time reminiscing and seeing everyone!  What fun memories.

From Mary:
Hi everyone.  It has been great reading about what everyone is doing with their lives.  I married Wade Whisnant in 1983, got a geology degree that same year.  Wade and I have three sons.  Jarrod our oldest is 24, married, and has a beautiful 18 month old daughter.  He will be graduating from La Tech in graphic design next winter. Yes we are grandparents!  Andrew, 20, is a history major at Southeastern.  Our youngest son, Patrick, 17, is a junior at St. Michael High School in Baton Rouge.  Our empty nest is fast approaching, but for now I spend most of my time at the baseball park, grading papers or studying for my classes at LSU.
