Congratulations to all of you and for keeping nice memories alive. Suzanne and I have lived in Australia since 1967 and the connection through this website has brought old memories back to life in the minds eye. Not only the reminder of old friends but also of that wildly optimistic era we were brought up in. It seemed a time when the sun was always shining.
We have moved to the tropical North of Queensland beside the pristine Coral Sea. We are both writers and my new novel has just been published and is available on Amazon: THE WOMAN LEFT BEHIND by Christos Morris. If you want you can check out life down in the antipodes through the new website/blog: christosmorrisauthor.com.
I hope to make it back for one of your reunions before dropping dead. Even if I do, I still might turn up.

Who was your favorite or most influencial teacher at Park?

Roy Griak
Roy had amazing talents to bring the best out people. And besides, he could teach a wombat to run fast.
Milt Hayden...10th grade Biology... Milt was the rare teacher who taught m to think and taught me to become inquisitive about everything...everything. Not only things we like.

If you could "do it all over again", would you?

Never write the same book twice. It is better to continue the journey and make it long and grow along the way.

Milt Hayden was my biology teacher from 10th grade. He came to class in the winter wishing he lived in Tahiti, claiming he was allergic to anything cold, even the newspaper brought inside during January was enough to give Milt pneumonia. But Milt was the best teacher I ever had, including my stints at two universities. He made me WANT to learn. For the idiot boy I was then, that was a magical feat. I think he taught me to have passion and to always be inquisitive about everything. For some of us, the dead always come back to life. Christos Morris
