Randy Adams, Class of 1989, Washington CH, Ohio 43160, I will be 32 August 16th, the day Elvis dies. Yes I still love Elvis, ha, ha, I can't believe 30 has come and gone and I imagine all of you can't believe it either. I am married and reside in Washington Court House. I own and operate a music store and still play the drums 2 nights a week in a local country band called Country Express. I had moved to Nashville for a short period in 1994 where I played music with Toby Keith's band as a fill in and then I missed my biggest chance ever when I was called to audition with a unknown singer at the time named Shaniah Twain. Yes I blew it, didn't set my alarm and didn't wake up. My wife and I just had our first child named her Katelyn. She is a hand full (LOVES MUSIC) If your ever around Wilmington stop in and see me at Caeser's Creek Flea Market. I will cut you a great deal on a guitar. Miss all my friends. May God bless you all. rcguitars@yahoo.com

Lonny Beal, Class of 1983, 2359 Pine Knott Dr., Beavercreek, OH 45431, 937-427-9828, After graduation, I went to Miami University and graduated in 1987 with a bachelors in Systems Analysts. During the summer of 1986, I spent the summer in Tokyo, Japan as a short term missionary with Campus Crusade for Christ. While at Miami, I was in Air Force ROTC and was commissioned upon graduation. During the summer, I worked for BDM in Dayton while awaiting flight training in navigator school in the fall. I moved out to Sacramento, CA for undergraduate navigator training. During the Christmas break (1987), I returned to Ohio and married my college sweetheart, Beth Steenrod. Upon graduation of navigation school in Aug of 1988, I went to Survival Training in Washington state and KC-135 aircraft training in Merced, CA. In January 1989, I moved to England for three years. I flew on the airborne command and control aircraft and took many European vacations (not with Chevy Chase). After my tour in England, I spent a couple of months training in Alabama before heading to the opposite side of the globe to Okinawa, Japan. I spent 4 years flying the KC-135 around the Pacific. During that time, I graduated with a masters degree in Economics. Also, during that tour my daughter, Jessica, was born (1994). After my tour in Japan, I moved to Hawaii for 3 1/2 years. While stationed in Hawaii, I flew 4-star generals and admirals around the Pacific and the states as their personal chauffer. In addition, I was Hickam's flight safety officer and was trained in aircraft accident investigations. I was promoted to Major and graduated from Air Command and Staff College. After Hawaii, I moved to Altus, Oklahoma where I taught new navigators how to operate the KC-135. After 15 years of constant flying jobs, I finally got a chance to take a break from flying and obtained a staff job as a command flight safety officer at Air Force Material Command at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio. We live in Beavercreek (10 minutes from the air base). This spring, I was promoted to Lt Colonel (I will pin on the new rank Oct 03). Currently, I am studying Air War College material. www.geocities.com/lonny_beal, e-mail: beal@ameritech.net 

Scott Benner, MHS Class of 1984, and Jennifer (May) Benner. Jenny and I have been married for four years now and we are expecting our first child in September of 1998. Jenny is originally from the New Carlisle area near Dayton. We met while working at the same hospital in Cincinnati. Later, we moved to Indianapolis where we now work at a large central laboratory, called Covance, which does testing exclusively for pharmaceutical company clinical trials. My parents still live and work in Greenfield and we come to visit when we can. Mom still teaches first grade and Dad still works for Johnson Controls. If you would like to find out more detail about what Jenny and I have been doing, then check out our home page at http://home.earthlink.net/~sbenner. I am not responsible for what you might find there! You can contact us at sbenner@earthlink.net or 7788 Cobblesprings Drive, Plainfield, IN 46168, 317-272-8727. UPDATED 5/10/99 Scott Benner, Class of 1984, 7788 Cobblesprings Drive,  Plainfield, IN 46168, (317) 272-8727, This is a brief update to my previous posting.  Our son, Andrew was born last September and is still growing like a weed. See pictures on my homepage http://home.earthlink.net/~sbenner/ There are also some other pictures of hobbies, interests, and family.  Both Jenny and I still work at the same company, Covance, but I have moved into a new area there where I develop Microsoft Access Databases. I'm out of the lab and basically that's all that matters. Jeny and I keep busy with the baby, and I also enjoy fly-fishing, boating, bass fishing, volleyball, beer drinking, and big TV's. (These are a few of my favorite things)ha, ha. It's been good to hear from those of you who know me. It is always good to know your old friends still remember you. I don't get back to Greenfield as much as I should but I know that friends are only as far away as my home computer. Thanks for writing us.   Scott sbenner@earthlink.net 46123, 2004 Update: Hello friends. My family an I are still living in the same place for 10 years now. We thought about moving but I guess we lacked the proper motivation to carry it out. Drew is now 5 yrs old and will start Kindergarten in the fall. He is into dinosaurs galore! Jenny has a new position as the Manager of QA in an upstart company, Indy Biostorage Technologies, and she is doing very well. I am firmly planted in the Covance Corporate world where I have carved out a nice niche for myself over the last 11 years as an applications developer. I still have many of the same non-work interests as before only not so much "beer drinking" these days. I'm more of a fish-a-holic in the summer and a PC nut in the Winter. The upcoming 20th reunion of the class of '84 has me pretty pumped up. I can't wait to see some of my old classmates. So many of the grads from ol' McClain are doing so well these days that it really makes me proud to tell my new friends and co-workers about our wonderful, historical high school.

UPDATE: Beth A. Birkhimer, Class of 1981, 427 Rainbow Acres Dr., Moncks Corner, SC 29461, Hard to believe it's 2006, who'd have thought? I graduated from Rio in 1985 and moved to Charleston, SC. I am finishing my 22nd year (teaching Special Education) in the same classroom, which happens to be a "temporary" trailer. It's a running joke at my school to call Guinness and see if there's a category this would fit in. Made it to the 10 year reunion, but none after that. I manage to get back to Greenfield every summer to see my Mother, having lost my dad while I was in college. Just missed the Greene Countrie Towne this past summer, was leaving the day it started. Enjoying a happy relationship of four years, funny how you find someone when you aren't looking, isn't it?? It was great to read that so many of you are doing well. chariotsoffire82@yahoo.com  12/30/06

Tracy (Cooper) Reveal, Class of 1989, Hillsboro, Ohio 45133, Since leaving McClain, I've moved about one whole mile (geographically speaking) at least as far as my current residence goes!  I received degrees in Criminal Justice from Wilmington College (B.A.) and Xavier University (M.S.) which led me to work for the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation & Correction.  I've worked as a Parole Officer and in Administration for the Parole Authority before assuming my current position as Superintendent for DRC's Training Academy in Orient.  I'm an adjunct instructor at Southern State College in the Law Enforcement & Corrections programs that I developed.  I also teach there and at Ohio University in police academies sponsored by the Ohio Peace Officers Training Commission - those are my "for fun" jobs!  I married Mike Reveal (a W.C. grad) and we have one very ornery little boy named Cole who is 4 - must get that from his dad :)  Cole's in preschool and is really a precious gift.  Besides cows, tractors and sports, he loves to sing and my CD collection has grown because of it!  Mike left UPS to become an entrepreneur, which is when we became the owners of Paint Valley Supply, a feed and farm supply store in Bainbridge.  We've since sold that one but still have our Hillsboro store on Walnut Street.  This web-site is really cool and it is great seeing what everyone is doing/where you all ended up!  tlreveal@dragonbbs.com, UPDATE: Tracy Cooper-Reveal, Class of 1989, Thanks to Marsha O for reminding me to update my BIO! In the past 6 years, we've expanded our family to include a beautiful little girl named Halle Elizabeth (11/05). Big Brother Cole and his posse of sports fanatic friends have her spoiled already! Keeping up with all of them (despite wearing INDIAN garb) has been fun and keeps us very busy! I'm still working with Ohio Dept. of Rehab & Correction, so if I happen to see you while on-the-clock, I do hope you're an employee! I've given up adjunct work to consult for various federal and other corrections agencies. That's meant lots of travel to some cool places, but it's always best to come back to Highland County! Hello to all my 1989 - soon to be 20 years - alumni friends! Hopefully we'll all be able to get together in '09. tlreveal@sbcglobal.net 3/18/08

Scott Cross, MHS Class of 1981. Hello fellow Tigers ... I was very surprised to find good ole Greenfield on the internet. Welcome to the 20th Century haha. Altho I didn't live in Greenfield for that long, I was born there and also attended McClain High School (there and Laurel Oaks) I do call it home. I still have family there so I get home fairly often to visit. I was also surprised to see that Burger King and McDonalds have sprung up there ... WOW! Greenfield really is booming. Anyhow, I graduated from McClain in 1981 with my buds Crouse, Perry and Haney. Sure did have some great times playin football with those good ole boys. After graduating I worked in Wilmington at Cincinnati Milacron while waiting to join the Army as an armor crewman which I did in Oct 81. I got married and had two girls ... Lisa and Linda. Now 14 and 12 respectively. I spent my first year in the Army in Fort Bliss, Texas, then up till now bouncing back and forth between Fort Knox, Kentucky, and Germany. I will be going back to Germany in Feb 99 for three more years then retiring from the Army. I divorced in March and have since remarried. My new bride Melissa and my stepdaughter Nadia will be joining me overseas. After retiring I plan to return to Ohio and get into law enforcement. (So watch out Jon ... *grin*) Anyhow, good to see Greenfield growing. Maybe I will get back and watch the Tigers play some football again this year. Good Luck Fellas!

Willie & Kris (Rooks) Cross, 1989 and 1987 MHS grads. The two of us were recently made three with the birth of our beautiful son, Cyrus James, on March 27, 1998. Cy is the absolute light of our lives (flaky, but true). You can check out some photos of him (and the rest of the family) on his Grandpa Larry’s website at www.highland-ohio.com/ne8v. Aside from our family addition, we’ve also added a new home to our projects list (as if we didn’t have enough to do right now!) We’ve been living here since the beginning of May and we love it. Willie has been working for GTE since graduating from high school; I now work for Fall Creek Communications (the family biz). Willie still lives and breathes Ohio archaeology and I’m working on learning some photography skills. You can drop us a note at kwcross@bright.net or 12076 Juvenile St., Greenfield, OH 45123 or call (937) 981-7740. UPDATE, Kris Rooks Cross & Willie Cross, Class of 1987, Thought it was time to update our biography since so much has happened lately. Most importantly, we were blessed with a daughter, Harper Jane, on May 18, 1999. She was born two months early due to her having a genetic disorder called Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome, but she is a trooper and has done VERY well. She and Cy keep each other very busy (and Mom & Dad, too!) but what a ton of fun! Photos of the divine Miss H and the rest of our family are at http://www.highland-ohio.com/kris/familyscrapbook.jpg. Then in July 2000 we bought an old (1823?) fixer-upper on Cave Road, near 7 Caves and the Highlands Nature Sanctuary. Standing on the front porch of our house, you can hear the falls at the Barrett's Mill dam (that's priceless). Check out the sanctuary's website at www.highlandssanctuary.org if you're not aware of this amazing thing happening in our area. The sanctuary and the community of folks living on Cave & Browning roads are what drew our family there. Our new address will be 6929 Cave Road, Bainbridge, OH 45612 (but don't write us yet, we don't have a mailbox!) kwcross@bright.net

Crystal (Hall) D’Amico, MHS Class of 1984. It seems like a lifetime has passed since I graduated from McClain! Well, where do I start? I have an A.A.S. degree from Tidewater Community College in Virginia Beach, VA. I am back in Ohio now and living in Dayton. I was an executive secretary to the CFO of Moto Photo Inc. and most recently a legal secretary for Coolidge, Wall, Wamsley & Lombard, Co., L.P.A. I have been married for five years to an architect and have a daughter who will be 3 in October. I am a stay-at-home mom now, but plan to go back to work when my daughter starts going to elementary school. Would love to hear from any of my old school friends.

Joachim Davis, Class of 1984, Alma, P. O. Box 212, NE 68920, After graduating and receiving my certificate in Electronics from Laurel Oaks, I failed to find employment in the region and moved to the Silicon Valley where my brothers Joe ('75) and Jeff ('81) preceded me.  In 2 weeks was employed there.  I found employment in my field of study after a year and never left it.  I finally met a level headed girl and married in '93.  We now have 3 boys aged 1 to 5.  They are most important in our life and why we left the big city to find the friendly, Christian, rural Nebraskan life to be most fitting.  Our town has a population of 1200 and sits next to the Harlan County Reservoir.  Employment isn't the greatest, but we don't worry about our physical safety here.  I have a lot of hobbies I can't practice right now because of the age of our children.  In 10 more years I will let you know which ones prevail...  I would welcome e-mails from classmates.  Please include some information to knock the cobwebs loose. jvdavis@cenebr.net

Leigh Ann Delph, Class of 1989, 945 Woodhill Dr, Grandview Heights, Oh 43212, Hey Everybody!! You won't believe how surprised I was to be searching on the internet and realize Greenfield was on the net!!! When I found this I thought it was really great. After graduation I hung around about 1 week and I was gone.  I partied for a little while and then got married and had a son. He is now 8 yrs old. His name is Koeby.  delph0316@yahoo.com  Leigh Ann  Delph, Class of 1989, 945 Woodhill Dr, Grandview Heights, Oh 43212, Well I accidentally hit enter and submitted my information and I haven't gotten back here to finish it up. I got divorced about 5 yrs ago. Since then I have just been working and taking care of my son. Not to much of an interesting life. But anyone with kids knows it is ultimately the best thing. It was great to find this site. I have emailed a couple of people because of it. So if anyone wants to email me I would love to hear from most of you!!! Take Care Everyone!!  This is an update. delph0316@yahoo.com UPDATE: Leigh Ann Delph, Class of 1989, Grandview, Oh, Just wanted to let everyone know that I have added an addition to my family . I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy in December I named him Nicholas Anthony and let me tell you this pregnancy was unexpected. After I had Koeby 10 years ago I said no more but I couldn't be happier. His father was very happy also. I hope everyone I graduated with is doing well and those that I know are as well take care. delph0316@yahoo.com

Katie (Riley) Dettwiller, MHS Class of 1984. After graduating from MHS in 1984, I went on to further my education at Otterbein College in Westerville, Ohio. I earned my bachelor’s degree in communications and business administrations (marketing/management). I moved back to Greenfield and started working for a mortgage company. Also during that time, I obtained my EMT certification. I volunteered as an EMT at the Greenfield Area life Squad for quite a few years. Through a blind date, I met my now husband Mark Dettwiller. He is related to the many other Dettwillers in Greenfield. We have two children: Megan (age 5) and Morgan (age 3 going on 30). Morgan is just like her father! My husband was promoted and relocated to LaGrange, Ga., (about an hour southwest of Atlanta) last May. The girls and I stayed behind hoping to sell the house (if anyone is interested in a three-bedroom A-frame out at Rocky Fork Lake, please let me know!). The girls and I finally down here in November of ‘97. It is definitely different. My kids have already severely picked up the “southern drawl.” My husband loves his position at Palm Harbor Homes (engineering manager). I am working from home (which is very nice!) for a company called Ferno Aviation. Ferno-Washington Inc. out of Wilmington, Ohio, is the parent company. I had worked there for almost nine years. I am a marketing manager for Ferno Aviation. I have to admit that I miss Ohio. We really do not have any close friends here or relatives here and that eight- to nine-hour drive is a killer. So hello to all I know and should you feel like chatting, my e-mail address is kdettwiller@ferno.com. You can also contact us at 119 Old Airport Road, #29, LaGrange, GA 30240, or call 706-812-8930. UPDATE: Katie (Riley) Dettwiller, Class of 1984, 70 Austin Woods Drive, Senoia, Georgia 30276, I've pretty much updated everyone with my first insert.  I am just curious if the class of 1984 will be having a 20 yr. reunion next year.  I really can't coordinate things from down here in Georgia, but there are many ample brains that could work together up there.  I'd be glad to help with what I could from this distance. Like I said, I'm just curious.  We are keeping busy down here in Georgia.  I feel like I eat and sleep at the softball fields.  Megan has literally been playing since February.  Her first Fall Ball practice was tonight.  Megan made the All Star team in the spring and we just finished that up last weekend.  Well, if anyone knows something about a reunion, please let me know. Thanks!  (kdettwiller@ferno.com)

Tim Dettwiller, Class of 1983, 1495 East Pekin Road, Lebanon, Ohio 45036,  513-933-0844, Hello classmates!  Over the last 20 years I have been busy.  Robin and I were married in 1986.  I graduated from Wilmington College in 1987.  Robin Graduated in 1994 from Ohio University.  I worked for the Auditor of State of Ohio as a Deputy Auditor for 13 years.

Robin Dorchel Jones: Gee, I guess I should submit to this site as my name has been brought up once or twice. Firstly by my high school best friend who I still love and admire today. Always a voice of reason, yet always willing to try something new and have fun. Secondly by my now ex-husband Danny Jones. 15 years, two kids and an "honorable mention". I married Danny Jones on January 20th, 1987. I was 6 months pregnant and it seemed like a good decision on his part. He whisked me off to California, 4 months after Brittany was born, dropped us off and abruptly left for overseas. In the next 3 years, we were together 15 months. This being based on the Seabee rotation- not his fault, but at the same time his choice of careers. Having been raised in small towns and with very little real life experiences beyond rather miserable high school follies, I became overwhelmed with my suddenly "grown-up" situation. I haven't any qualms with admitting that I didn't handle it very well. Went off the deep end, really. Never did drugs- but I sure did find an alternate reality with alcohol. I did as I suppose most in their late teens and early twenties do. An interesting mix of fun and misery... I survived, Brittany survived and surprisingly so did my marriage. The following three years were just the opposite. Danny was now on shore duty. We moved to another base and set up a "real" home. I became super mom... PTA, Navy wife, all around great gal. I threw myself into my marriage and into my family. We became four there- my son was born. A truly wonderful experience. I put forth my greatest effort to make my family a success. My husband at this time was present 24/7. These were "the good years" and probably deserve more detail, but it was really quite mundane. We come then to the next three years. Right back to Port Hueneme and the dreaded 8mo/5mo rotation. Much of what I had established in the previous 3 years carried through for a length of time, but I once again found myself alone- this time with two kids. I filled some of this time with more responsible endeavors- volunteer work at the children's school, a couple of exchange students, etc. Regardless, our marriage fell apart. By the time we left for Danny's next station, it was pretty much over. I just kind of gave up. We decided to separate shortly after arriving. Separated, but not divorced. We retained the marriage for mutual benefit with the understanding that if one or the other should fall in love and wish to get married, we'd divorce. The children and I moved into a small house in Marysville when Danny left for overseas. Three years later, Dan returned to Washington. The children, having missed their father greatly, asked to live with him. This I granted. I gave up the house and resided with a man I had met in the interim. The aforementioned relationship ended abruptly and not affably. I moved to a nice two bedroom apartment to start over. Danny was married in August, 2004. We finished the divorce in June, 2005. Today I am self reliant. I have developed many wonderful friendships. I am currently with George- who is loving, caring and tolerant of the quirks I've developed through life. His family loves me as I do them. Life is good. My daughter is doing fabulous- smart and sweet and responsible- and in a good relationship with a wonderful, gentle and attentive young man. My son is doing just as well. Smarter than his teachers and decisive in all he does. He'll be someone to reckon with as he matures. How lucky I am! I am proud of them both. hodchick@hotmail.com 

Ron Dudley, Class of 1988, 5959 Ft. Caroline Rd. #3607, Jacksonville, FL 32277, (904) 743-9904, Hehe...you didn't think I would fall for that, did you? I've decided that Wendy will be my publicist, so you will have to ask her! I wish you all well! ronjax2000@cs.com, UPDATE: Ron Dudley, Class of 1988, Wendy moved to Japan for a few years, so I guess it's up to me. It's all a blur, but I did some time in the NAVY during the first Gulf War, then stayed here in Jacksonville working as a driver, then security guard, spent about 5 years at Sears selling computers, and have been working at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida for the last 8 years. I managed to get my A.S. in Computer Science in 2003 and have been working as a software developer at BCBSFL since 2004. I am currently looking at taking a position in Columbus, but nothing is settled yet. My wife and daughter are looking forward to the move. I did manage to sneak up there for a week or so without setting of any alarms and did get to see my brothers (Alex & Chris) in some skits and songs during Open House a few weeks ago. Hopefully we'll be seeing you soon! www.ronjax2000.com

Katy (Everhart) Lewis, Class of 1982, 4636 Rapid Forge Road, Bainbridge, OH 45612, After graduation I attended nursing school in Springfield. Graduated from nursing school in 1985. Returned home and worked at GAMC until 1990. Since 1990 I have worked at the Highland County Health Department. I guess I'll probably retire from here. Life's been good. I met my husband on a blind date at the 1984 Highland County fair. We were married 11 months later. Chris is a CPA and grew up in Hillsboro. We have three children, Ethan (14), Erin (11) and Evan (7). We live in an old farm house, which is a work in progress, but I love it. Chris is a travel bug so I've been to a lot of places. I always love coming back home though. I've not been able to attend any of our reunions but I do miss everyone. Hope to hear from you soon. God bless. levmeb_kate@yahoo.com

     After I left the camp I worked part time for Greenfield Printing and Publishing (Banta Pub.).  I worked in the bindery, and the mail room. 
     I then enlisted in the US Army.  I started basic training November 6th 1990 at Fort Knox Kentucky.  I went to Fort Harrison near Indianapolis for my job training.  I worked the rest of my time in service as a Personnel Administration Specialist (kind of like Radar in M.A.S.H).  I went back to Fort Knox to work in the Reception Station.  I then spent my final year in the service in Korea.  Korea was very interesting.  I made quite a few friends in Korea.
     After my enlistement ended I came home for about a month.  I then moved to Toledo with a friend from college.  I have been working for the same company for a little over five years now.  The company is BAX Global.  We deal in air freight.  The operation is very similar to Airborne Express.  Presently I am working in the international freight department.

Cindy (Oyer) Gregg, Class of 1982, 3308 Sherwood Drive, Lafayette, IN 47909, 765-477-7112, Following graduation I married Mark (Tony) Gregg on June 19th, 1982. As we approach our 20th anniversary it has been for us a year of reflection. You see our oldest Mark will graduate from Lafayette Central Catholic JR-Sr. High School on June 2nd, 2002. It is hard to believe. He is a wonderful young man who enjoys playing tennis and baseball. Our daughter Ashley is a freshman at Lafayette Jefferson high school and enjoys cheerleading, gymnastics and track. Ashley has been taking gymnastics classes since she was 7 and is currently a Level 8 USAG gymnast as well as a great asset to the Broncho's gymnastics program as MVP this year. As you can probably tell we are very proud of both of the children. Tony is still employed at Western-Southern life Ins. Co. out of Cincinnati as he has been for the past 21 years. His position at W&S was the reason for our move to Lafayette in 1992. We could not have found a better place to raise a family. After staying at home doing various odd jobs while the kids were younger I can say moving to Lafayette has also been a great place for me to have found a career. During our time here I worked at Lafayette Central Catholic for 7 years as the Asst. Manager of the Cafeteria, Bus Driver, Cheerleading Coach, Athletic Secretary, Front Office Secretary and Administrative Asst. to the Asst. Principal/Athletic Director. As you can see I think I did just about all I could do at CC. After coaching gymnastics part time I decided to leave CC and coach full time. I am now the Manager and Head Coach at Malones Gymnastics Center. I coach/teach ages 3- Level 9. I enjoy my job very much. These young ladies are the future leaders of tomorrow. It is my belief that they are learning life lessons and gymnastics at our facility. Oh and I forgot, I am also the head coach of the Lafayette Jefferson Broncho's (2 years). A Class 4A school with an enrollment of 2300 students.  We recently qualified to regionals for the first time in 10 years!! GO BRONCHO'S!! I look forward to the 20 year reunion this year and hope that we can attend. cgregg99@yahoo.com

Theresa (Hadley) Staten, Class of 1984, 724 N. Washington St., Greenfield, OH 45123, Hard to believe it has been 20 years! Where does the time go? After high school I went to Rio Grande for two years, where I met Rusty (he is from Wellston). He is a corrections officer at Pickaway (Orient) and has been there 18 years. We married in 1988. I worked as a legal secretary in Columbus for six years. In 1992 We decided that Columbus wasn’t the place to raise kids (at that time we had two girls and had a boy on the way), so we moved back to Greenfield. After our son was born, I started my own business so I could be at home for my kids. What did I do? What else…typing (I was also an EMT for two years). I did medical transcription for ten years before carpal tunnel got the best of me. I am now enrolled at OU-C and have applied to the nursing program (I want to do home health and hospice). Rus and I are very involved with music at church, especially with helping other churches get their music ministries up and going and with the Emmaus community. We also sing in a quartet with my brother (Jeff) and his wife…we sing here and there at other churches and some festivals. In my spare time (ha!) I LOVE to cook & bake (my latest accomplishment is perfecting my crčme horns...yum), and Rus and I cook together quite a bit (Chinese & Mexican are our favorites).

The kids are growing too fast! My step-daughter, Danielle, is 19 and is studying interior design. Liz is a Freshman, Elicia is in 8th, and Terry is in 6th. They are all in the band (Trumpet, percussion and sax, respectively), and both of the girls will be 5-year marching band members like some of us were. ROOT!

Hated missing the reunion, but we had to sing at a festival that evening. Heard is was great! Would love to hear from you! rtstaten@adelphia.net UPDATE: Theresa (Hadley) Staten, Class of 1984, A lot has happened since my last post! I did get accepted into the Nursing Program and will graduate this June with my RN. My goal is to work in the ER at Adena in Chillicothe and possibly obtain certification as a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner. I’ll finish up my Bachelor’s with a minor in psych while I’m working. After 10 years or so I still plan to transition into hospice…it’s a calling. We’re still doing the music thing, and currently Rusty is the Music Minister at Fruitdale UMC. All three of our kids (who are now 14, 16 & 17) play the guitar, and two of them play regularly with Rus on Sunday mornings. We no longer sing with Jeff and his wife…they are divorced. He has recently remarried and all is well. Would love to hear from old friends! New e-mail address is statens@roadrunner.comwww.myspace.com/ma 4/28/07, UPDATE: Theresa (Hadley) Staten, Class of 1984, I finished nursing school and passed my boards! I'm officially an RN now and love every minute of it! Liz is a senior and just returned from Europe where she performed with an honor band in several countries. Elicia is a junior and just got her license. The girls are at the state fair singing in the Youth Choir. Terry is a freshman, gets better every day on his guitar, and is very active with New Directions. Rus and I have been married for 19 years, and he has worked at the Prison for 21. All is well. Now that I'm out of school and have time for a normal life, I finally have time to keep in touch with more of you! statens@roadrunner.com, and yes, I have a myspace so I can keep up on what the kids are into... www.myspace.com/mamatluv2cook. 8/6/2007

Jenny (Gregg) Haley, Class of 1983, Sabina, Ohio, After graduation, I married, worked in Greenfield for six years, divorced and moved to Wash. Court House.  I worked at Mac Tools for six years, which is where I met my husband Dean.  We have three beautiful children, Chelsie, 11 years, Chase, 9 years and Charleigh Caitlyn, 19 months.  Our children attend East Clinton schools, which pains me that they are an "Astro" instead of a "Wildcat" (Buckskin) or  "Tiger". After Mac Tools, I took a position with CBS Personnel Services in Wilmington, OH and was Branch Manager for 3 years.  My business experience I gained over the years enabled me to accept a teaching position at Washington Senior High School as the Jobs for Ohio's Graduates instructor. This position was very rewarding and fulfilling as a I worked with "at-risk" kids.  I held this position for two years before becoming a stay at home mom.  It was a tough decision leaving my teaching job, however I felt my priorities were to be at home with my children.  Our son Chase suffers from Autism and I have spent most of my time at home researching neurological brain dysfunctions.  For more info please visit www.autism.org. You may see me passing through Greenfield occasionally on my way to mom and dad's, who still live on Salem Road.  I enjoy spending time with my family, crafting and camping. I would love to eventually return to the education field in a counseling capacity, however for now I very content spending time with my children, especially the baby. I'll keep you posted. Our home church is Heritage Memorial in Wash. Court House and we visit World Harvest Church (Pastor Rod Parsely) in Columbus several times a month.  Please feel free to contact me as I would enjoy hearing from friends and classmates. jenhly@yahoo.com

It's always nice to go "home".  I would love to hear from my former classmates -- any plans for our 20th reunion?!?!? d-blong@mindspring.com UPDATE:  Betsy (Grim) Long, Class of 1982, Smyrna, GA 30082, new e-mail address of dorblong@msn.com

Christina Hall Ross, Class of 1985, 611 Franklin Ave., Union, Ohio 45322,   937-836-8401, Hi Greenfield, This summer (2000) marks my class of 85's 15year reunion, which I hope is the best yet! I enjoyed the 4th of July celebration in 99. I attended the Tigerette breakfast which was really fun. I got to hear Mr. Cruise give his excellent tour of the school, and the shoe factory field was a "hot one". I really enjoyed the Gathering at the dance sat. night. Seeing a wide range of McClain graduates was really worth while. Larry Stewart (81) was my high school sweetheart, and we were married 10 years. Four years ago, we divorced and are the best of friends to this day. We share our dog, "Roxy". She was our only child! I am a Corporate Buyer for A.O. Smith Electrical Products, in Tipp City, Ohio. I travel about every 3 weeks, from Minnesota, Tennessee, to Mexico. I traveled to our 15 plants in Juarez & Monterrey MX, 8 times in 99. I really love it there. The great weather and the many friends I have draw me to that area. My parents still live in Greenfield, so I get to come back monthly. I have 2 Associate Degrees, and will finish by Bachlors in 5 semisters at WPAFB in Logistics Mgmt. I own my home in Union, a small town northwest of Dayton. Looking forward to seeing my classmates this summer. Take Care everyone. "SMILE" Tigerettes! Its a great thing to practice and you can use it the rest of your life! cvitara@yahoo.com, UPDATE: Christina  Stewart, Class of 1985, 611 Franklin Ave, Union, OH 45322, Revised:7/2001, Hello classmates!  Just wanted to update my email, and update my Bio.  I still am a Corp. Buyer for A.O. Smith in Tipp City, OH.  I am traveling a lot to Mexico and around the U.S.  I graduate with my Bachelor's in Logistics MGMT on November 18, 2001!  YEAH!  I can't wait.  Last Sept. 30th was our 15 yr reunion, and it was one of the best nights, at least for me!  I found one of my old buddies again from 9th and 10th grade.  We were Lockers and Classroom Buddies.  Tim Ross.  We started dating right after the reunion, and are going strong still.  He brings me back to Highland county almost every weekend.  What a treasure he is... I am very fortunate. The next 6 months are going to be wild and crazy for me, but I feel it will all be worth while come 2002!  Hope to see some of you at Homecoming Football Game. cstewart@aosepc.com, UPDATE: Christina Hall Ross, Class of 1985, 8159 Stoney Point Rd., Hillsboro, OH 45133, Since my last update, my classmate Tim Ross and I, have been married 1 year and 2 months. We are truly a great match. Funny how life takes you different places through careers, and other people, yet brings you back home to where you fit best. I love being a mom (step-mom to his boys), my only problem is we don't get them enough. Shared parenting is very hard, but very good for the children. Our little farm is cute, and we are starting to get involved in our hometown once again. Look... for Tim Ross' name out there in the real estate world soon, because he should get his license by spring 04. He will make a great customer service Agent! downacountrylanefarm@earthlink.net, UPDATE: Christina Hall Ross, Class of 1985, March 2006, Tim and I are getting ready to celebrate the 1st birthday of our daughter Madalyn Marie Lidia Ross. She has been a wonderful, joyful addition to our family. The boys are crazy over her and all our family, friends and neighbors have been great in supporting us in this effort. She was born in Guatemala and was placed into heart at 20 days old and into our arms at 6-1/2 months old. What a blessing she has been and is to anyone who meets her. Tim is busy with real estate...I am working at FERNO as a Senior Buyer. Boys are growing.. and soon will be on their own. As I turned 39 this last month...the only good thing I could say is I have a 11mo old daughter (at least it's not a 11mo old grandchild!) Go Tigers!

Andrea Head Wilson, Class of 1986, Hello everyone. I guess you could say I'm definitely a Greenfield girl at heart...I NEVER LEFT! I currently live at 523 McClain Avenue in Greenfield. I went to college for about a year and a half at the Ohio University Branch in Chillicothe, so I still lived at home at that time. Then, I met Jimmy Wilson...he moved down here from Dayton in 1985. I quit college, and started working for Greenfield Printing and Publishing, so Jimmy and I could get married in 1988...and of course, we lived in Greenfield.

Randy Jenkins and Lori (Ross) Jenkins, Class of 1982, 8406 US Route 50 East, Hillsboro, Ohio 45133, (937)393-3509, Hi everyone! We're coming to you from your neighboring town and friendly rival, Hillsboro.  Randy and I married in October 1984 and immediately moved into our little farmhouse just outside Hillsboro.  We've worked hard and fixed up a real "fixer-upper".  Randy worked for his family trucking business for 12 years then after it closed in 1996, he began working for R and L Carriers in Wilmington.  He is a truckload driver and has a regular route that takes him to Monroe, Oxford, Middletown, Lebanon, area everyday. I  began working at what was then known as 1st Security Bank in 1985.  I opened my own craft shop in 1988.  It was in business for 12 years. In 2000, I opened my own child care business, focusing on our nations most precious resource, its children. We have been blessed with 2 beautiful daughters, Kristen Noelle was born in 1987 and Emmy Lee was born in 1990.  Both girls are very active in church activities, 4-H, and sports. It's been a real challenge cheering for our red and white Hillsboro Indian basketball player. Most all our free time is devoted to our children, but someday we hope to have some free time to just sit down, and relax on our back porch. Feel Free to contact us, or just stop by, our door is always open to our "old friends". heartofthecountry@in-touch.net

Greg "Chip" Johnson, Class of 1985, 435 H.C.R. 4434, Itasca, TX 76055, 254-687-2595, Hello all. It's really nice to see Greenfield finally on the map. Anyway, I'm sure there will be a few surprised people to see me on here. Those of you that know me anyway. I really am glad to see how Greenfield is growing. There just wasn't anything there when we were kids. First off, I want to say hi to all my old friends and thank them for befriending me. I wasn't exactly the nicest person growing up. Anyway, although I got off to a rough start, I'd like to believe that it was all destiny. I ended up at the end of my wicket ways coming out with a BA in psychology/sociology. I'm currently working towards a masters in clinical psychology. I've had several different jobs since graduating from college. Case manager at Scioto Paint Valley Mental Health Center, left that for a social service director job in the geriatric field. Very interesting and depressing. The nursing facility sold so we left there and found ourselves here in Texas. I'm currently working in a large corporation doing community relations. Basically eating lunches with doctors is my job. Tough job, ha ha. Hoping to earn an MA next year and open a private practice . So who's the we; that would be my high school sweetie Lisa Sutherland, class of 84'. We have a 16 year old son named Andrew. I also have two other children that I never get to see. Although I think of them all the time. Lisa and I also have an extended family that consist of 1 dog, 1 cat, 9 chickens, 4 goats, 2 cows, 1 horse, 1 donkey and a pond full of goldfish. Drop us a line sometime. Would love to know about the reunions. We come home about every 4 or 5 months. ROCKINGJRANCH@HILLSBORO.NET

I have been to places most people only dream about. Let me tell you though, Dorthy was right: There is no place like home. I still try to make it back to Greenfield as often as I can. I have spent my entire 12 plus years stationed on the west coast, 10 years in California and now 2 plus years here in Washington. I wish I could send you some of our rain, as I am really getting tired of it. You know the old saying though: The rain in Spain, falls mostly in Seattle. I married Robbin Dorschel in Feb. 87 and have 2 wonderful kids, Brittany Lynn-12 and Jack Daniel-7. Both of our parents reside in Greenfield as well as most of our families. Or at least within walking distance, o.k. maybe biking distance. Well I guess that's about it, if anyone would like to contact me please feel free to do so. Between the hours of 0545-0615 pst or 1745-2100 pst M-TH. Just kidding. Take care all. seabee_drj@hotmail.com, UPDATE: Daniel R Jones, Class of 1982, Where to start? Well I have divorced and taken custody of my son. We are now living in Washington state and I am stationed at SUBASE Bangor Public Works Department. I have 3 years remaining until I retire from the Navy and will return home to build my house. I own 5 acres outside of town and cannot wait to finish up here and get started on my new life. I recently returned from Kuwait/Iraq where I participated in Operation Iraqi Freedom. Everyday I tell myself how lucky I am to have my freedoms and enjoy our great lives here. Since 9/11 everything changed and will never be the same, but life goes on. Please feel free to e-mail me and maybe catch up on old times. Would love to hear from anyone back home, maybe even get some good leads on future job prospects.

We have a beautiful 10 year old daughter, Sammie (Samantha) and pretty much my whole life has revolved around her.

I feel that being around for your children is a very important job with many rewards. I was very surprised to find this website and wasn't sure about submitting my bio.

Jennifer (Miley) Johnson, Class of 1988, Greenfield, Ohio 45123, In 1987, I married David Matthews and our beautiful daughter was born in 1988.  We named her Heather Rochelle. In August of 1988 I began working at the Greenfield Area Medical Center as a ward secretary at the medical desk. I worked with a lot of wonderful people who hold a very special place in my heart. My marriage to David did not work out, and we were divorced in December of 1988. All things work out for the best because I met my best friend and the love of my life in early 1990. His name is Perry. Perry graduated from Miami Trace in 1986. We were married in December 1990, which is when I quit my job at GAMC to be a stay at home mother. Perry and I proceeded to add to our family, by having three more children. Taylor, Katie Elizabeth, and Hannah Noelle were born in 1991, 1995, and 1999 respectively. Perry adopted Heather in 1994. My husband and I renewed our marriage vows in 2001, and we have never been happier. Heather will be 15 years old in January. She is a freshman at McClain and recently went to the Homecoming dance. Our son Taylor is 11 years old and an honor roll student in the 5th grade. Katie is 7 years old and in the 1st grade. Katie is very talented in gymnastics. Hannah turned 3 years old this past July. Just like her sister Katie, Hannah is very good at gymnastics. Hannah was supposed to begin nursery school in September but she had a serious ear injury in August so she was unable to go this year. It has been great hearing from so many people, and I would love to hear from more of you soon. You can E-mail me at JennieJohnson911@hotmail.com

Tobi Miley, MHS Class of 1985. I currently live in Summerville, S.C., with my wife Christine (Nazario). I met her down here through our work. I am currently the assistant manager at Waldenbooks. Christine and I are expecting our first child in early January of ‘99. Also down here is Tom Rooks who graduated from McClain in 1986. Tom and I had previously shared an apartment in Columbus, Ohio. I really couldn’t explain what brought either of us to this place, but I’m really glad I came as I’ve met the love of my life. After our baby is born, Christine and I are planning to move back to the Greenfield area to be near my family. I was rather surprised when I picked up a copy of “Web Bound” at work and saw a web page for Greenfield. Especially since no one has ever heard of Greenfield. You know what I mean: “Where are you from?” “Greenfield.” “Where’s that?” “Have you ever heard of Hillsboro, Chillicothe or W.C.H.?” “Yeah, I know where those are.” “Greenfield’s pretty much in between them all.” “Never heard of it.” Well, that’s about it. I can be e-mailed at tobimiley@webtv.net. UPDATE Tobi Miley, Class of 1985, To update my last posting, Christine gave birth to our beautiful, wonderful, amazing SON (Tobias David Miley) on Dec 8th 1998. He came exactly 1 month early. He was 5 lbs 4 oz and 18 inches long. Christine suffered from pre-eclaympsia. I almost lost them both. Both are doing fine now. Tobias is now 15 lbs 10 oz and 26 and 1/4 long. We have decided to stay down here for a while.  I am in the process of finding a new, better paying job. Our life is pretty good(it took long enough). Hope everyone else is doing fine. tobimiley@webtv.net, UPDATE: Tobi Miley, Class of 1985, Here is an update. Christine and I have been married for 6 years now on May 8th 2004. Besides Tobias David(5) we now have Rebekah Eileen who will be 2 on July 10th. I am now the General Manager for Books-A-Million in Charleston and my Wife is an ophthalmic technician for a private practice in Mt. Pleasant. It's hard to believe that 19 years have passed since I graduated from MHS. I would love to hear from some of my old friends like Roger McCoy, Craig Wisecup, Robb Hamilton, Robin Gingerich or any of the other people I went to school with. I'm about to come home for a vacation and I really feel a pang for the old hometown. I know it's changed a lot since I lived there, but it was such a great place to grow up back in the day. There are so few "small towns" now that the memories of Greenfield are that much more bittersweet. Greenfield was such a "safe" and "comforting" town back then. Of course that could just be the hazy memory of long ago. How much more simple does the days of 45's and Atari seem now? Our kids will never know the joys of a record player or an 8 track tape. I so miss the days when all we had to worry about was getting home in time for dinner or the excitement we had for the Countrie Towne Festival. I miss Greenfield the way it was and I miss the friends I had growing up. Trying to recapture it is like trying to hold mercury in your hands. Not only is it impossible but it can be dangerous as well. As much as I love my life now, my wife and kids, I long to feel the way I did then, full of hope and longing for the days ahead. Treasure your memories and know that you grew up or lived in some place special.

I live in Andover, KS with my wife and two children, both girls. Just wanted to leave a quick note to say howdy to everyone in my home town. Feel free to e-mail me. I would love to hear from you. Thanks Brent Parsons.  billhilly@cox.net 

Stephanie Pearce Burke, Class of 1987, 212 Bellemeade Road, Louisville, KY 40222, It's nice to see that this website is growing, and it's always to nice to hear from old friends. After graduation, I attended Ohio Northern University, where I received my bachelor's degree in criminal justice and political science in 1991, and my law degree in 1994. I then moved to Louisville, Kentucky, and began my career. I first worked as a Staff Attorney (glorified law clerk) for the Jefferson Family Court, one of the most progressive domestic relations Court's in the country. Later, I served a brief stint as an Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney, prosecuting narcotics cases, before I moved on to private practice and joined The O'Koon Law Firm. After seven years with that firm, I resigned my partnership, and opened my own practice in December of 2002. This was the best career move I ever made, and I am really enjoying being "self-employed". I currently practice in the areas of criminal defense and family law, particularly dealing with child abuse and neglect matters. I've tried several cases, ranging from misdemeanor theft, DUI, Rape, to Murder. (Note: the Murder case did not go so well.) I also recently became certified in family mediation, and I intend to expand my practice by acting as a court-appointed mediator. On a more personal note, I was married on August 18, 2001, to Dennis Clay Burke. The wedding was here in Louisville, and I was very thankful that so many of my friends and family from Greenfield could be here. It was a great weekend. Cari Barr and Hannah Clyburn (now Vaughan) were bridesmaids, and they were both beautiful. I'm sure my Mom would show you the pictures if you call her, Ha!) I now have an eight year old step-daughter named Maria, and she just started second grade. For those of you who know me well, ELVIS LIVES, and he's ten years old now. We all try to come to Greenfield as often as possible to visit my Mom and Dad....and I can't wait until our next reunion (Dennis really enjoyed the last one!) pearceburke@yahoo.com

Betsy Reeves, MHS Class of 1989. After graduating from Greenfield in ‘89, I went to Ohio University. I attended OU for five years and would have stayed longer but I had already taken all the whitewater rafting, kayak and bowling classes they offered, so I graduated in 1994 with a degree in aviation. Planning on using my degree to the fullest, I left my job at the Harley Davidson/Yamaha dealership in Athens where I had worked for three years earning extra money for school. I moved back home with my parents and started working at Airborne. That lasted about a month. Then I moved to West Palm Beach, Fla., and started working for Picerne Development, a real estate development and management company. I now manage one of their apartment communities in West Palm. I am engaged to be married to John Miller, who also attended OU. John is from Canal Winchester (just east of Columbus) and graduated from OU in 1993. He is an electrical engineer and works for Omron Electronics. Nine months ago, we became parents of a bouncing baby boy. We named him Skipper because he loved chasing tennis balls into the water at the beach. Skipper is now a full-grown Golden Retriever, weighing in at 78 pounds! I can hardly believe my 10-year class reunion will be next year. Hello to everyone! You can contact me at BetsyandJohn@classic.msn.com or 1401 Village Blvd., #938, West Palm Beach, FL 33409 or call 561-471-4955.

Fell in love with caring for the sick. Graduated as an RN in 1993 and married my husband Randy (a Cincinnati native) in 1994. Randy finished his Ph.D. in psychology in 1998 and at the age of 33, it was pretty nice to be out of school for the first time... EVER!  We decided we needed some time together and left for Europe that August.  We backpacked and stayed at youth hostels from Scotland to Greece.  When we returned, Randy got a job offer from Chillicothe VA Hospital and we took it.  We have moved "back home" and just love it. I am working at Jewish Hospital as a Bone Marrow Transplant nurse. Cap Pitcher is the reason for that. I previously worked as a Hospice Nurse for 5 years and met some people of uncommon courage and faith. Randy and I still do not have any babies, but we have been approved for adoption and keep hoping. We will soon be moving to the old Lucas Farm in Petersburg...and with 5 bedrooms, I sure hope we can fill them!! Would love to see another generation of my family go to beautiful McClain. Hope to see you for 15-year reunion weekend. Does anyone know if anyone is getting anything together? I can help... jwenker@in-touch.net

Kathy (Rowland) Rager, Class of 1985, Clarksville, OH., Hi everyone, I cannot believe all the friends and family that I have found on-line. I've often wondered how everyone's lives have turned out. I'm glad to see how well everyone is doing. After years of wondering what life was really about, I finally settled into a wonderful life.  My husband and best friend Harry, whom I've been married to for 7 years is the best thing that has happened to me.  We met at Airborne. I quit last year and decided to take a course in Medical Transcribing, and it paid off. I am working out of my home and loving it. We have a nice home in a small town in Clarksville. Harry has two children (28 & 26).  Together we have two wonderful dogs (Sam & Peaches).  Life is good.  And when I can fit into that size 6 once again, life will be perfect. ragkat@in-touch.net

I spent a few months reacquainting myself with the civilian life then decided I would go to school for Medical Assisting.

Unfortunately I didn't actually graduate from McClain. I was supposed to graduate in 1989 but my family moved away before I got to start high school.

I work as a System Engineer (computers) for a large insurance company in the city. I still have family that lives in the Washington Court House area. It was nice to see this site. randyt@wowway.com

Heidi E. Smith (Trent), Class of 1988, Fair warning; it's been 20 years so this is going to be long! Where does time go? 20 years! Soon after graduation, I fled Greenfield and followed my heart to a Columbus suburb, Hilliard where I lived for less than a year and worked for almost 6 (Medex, Inc., a medical parts manufacturer) where I worked my way from assembly to Recruiting. It was my first "real" job. I later left for a better job and more money with Price Waterhouse (later merged and now called PriceWaterhouseCoopers), an accounting firm. I worked there in HR for about 5 years then onto working with the Regional L&E after the merge, where I enjoyed a lot of travel and working independent! This firm gave me my greatest opportunities and my first plane trip at the ripe ol' age of 26. Yes, I was 26 the first time! Unfortunately (& fortunately), I lost my job in 2001 due to major cutbacks (1100 people slashed and not rare as many Democratic companies adjusted after Bush took office...Note: I'm mostly Republican, just stating facts ;) and have since been fortunate enough to remain a full-time stay@home Mom for going on 6 years. Even though I miss my job dearly, loosing my job was a blessing in disguise. Cody just turned 14 and Noah is now 7 and we are having a ball! We have three dogs; Zeus, Nestle and Fred. Chad & I have been together for going on 16 years and we finally tied the knot in 2002. Chad is a wonderful, kind hearted, lovely man and I'm fortunate to be with him. We bought our little home in Grove City shortly after Cody turned 2 and have been here since. I lost my father to lung cancer in May of 1992 and just lost Mom this past January (the worst pain I've ever felt and still miserable). My little sister Jenny is living with her lover down the street and she just turned 22 years old! 6/4/07

I sure hope everyone is in good health and happy. I do think of the old times from now and then and just laugh at some of the stuff we use to do! Who knows, perhaps our paths will cross again someday. I want to thank all the people who added to my life, the joy, the lessons, all of it. Take care all. RIP Mom, Janice Lee Trent & Dad, Robert William Trent. gcrez@wmconnect.com

John Vandergriff, Class of 1989, 9331 Overland Way, San Antonio, Texas 78254, Had my family remained in the Rainsboro area I would have graduated with my friends in the class of 1989.  Looking through this site I haven't found any of them.  In 1983 my dad moved us to Cincinnati, then to Chicago where I graduated from Palatine HS.  In 1990 I enlisted in the Air Force and served as a counter-intelligence analyst for eight years.  I served in the Gulf War while I was stationed in Germany.  While in Germany I became a Little League baseball coach and coached the German team in the Junior League World Series in Taylor Michigan.  In 1994 I was moved to San Antonio, TX where I met my wife Susan.  I am now working as a consultant with the Army Medical Command in San Antonio.  I am looking to make contact with any Rainsboro elementary students from my class (Todd, Jon, Val, Jennifer, Rhonda, Tony).  Later! jaws9331@aol.com

Yes, Michelle and Greg are from my husbands first marriage, but I claim them they have been in my home and in my life since they were two and four. We have a daughter Amber LaDawn Moore who is 7 and just recently we added Benjamin Michael to our hearts and home, born November 23,1999...I now manage apartment complexes, I currently have 24 units and will be taking on a couple more I'm sure in the next year or two as soon as I get this one out of the hole it has fell into. Well take care. mrmoore@alltel.net UPDATE: Debbie Varner Moore, Class of 1984, P.O. Box 814, Chapmanville, WV 25508, 304-855-7376, Well since my last bio, I have moved to the family farm. My daughter Michelle is 19 now and in the National Guard. My son Greg is 17 and is becoming a star football player. I know a medical bill is coming. Lots of luck!. Amber is 9 and Benjamin is 2 will be three in couple months. Me I am feeling old, the gray is coming in. I'm still married to the most wonderful man. My sister Sherry is living in Newark, Ohio, I try to visit with her at least once a month. She has two beautiful girls. Allison is 12 and Meggie is 4 now. I was glad to see some names from my past and glad to see that some still carry their roots with them. Would love to hear from old school mates and hope that wherever you go and whatever you do that you always do your best. Life is short and gets shorter everyday, so take the time to look around and see just what God has given us. And see what there is that you can give back. mapavarner@inetone.net UPDATE: Debbie Varner Moore, Class of 1984, Louisville, Georgia 30434, Well 14 years of marriage, 16 years together, four kids later, am single again. Sometimes life will make two people grow together or apart. Our lives seemed to pull us apart, but we still remain friends which most can not say after a divorce. So I'm doing good, I'm a Property Manager in two counties here taking care of three complexes and will soon take on my fourth. I live life one day at a time and i don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow can take care of its self and requires no help from me. My son Greg graduates this year from High School, Michelle is getting married to long time boyfriend Scott Ray and together they have given me my first grandbaby born in November 2003, she is grandma's buddy, Destiny Marie is not spoiled, smiles..okay well maybe a little. Amber is now 11 and a great student in school, Benjamin is now 4, and i am starting to think he's my payback child, for all i gave my parents. well that is my update, Sherry Varner Miller my sister is doing great, she is finally getting to take her trip to ENGLAND this April. The girls are growing up and although I don't get to see them much, we still talk via computer and phone daily. Well friends from past get in touch, life it seems is short, and although there never seems to be enough time in one day and we tell ourselves we will do it tomorrow, sometimes tomorrow never comes for some, so take the time you will be glad you did. debramoore2003@hotmail.com  UPDATE: Debbie Varner Miller, Class of 1984, Well I was checking out the site. Got to reading my bio from three years ago and decided it was time for an update. I still live in Georgia, I don't see that ever changing. I remarried in 2003 to Kevin Miller. So my new brother in law is Brad Everhart *laughs* he hasn't changed none. My children have grown and time has went by very fast. Michelle never married. She was in an abusive relationship and finally when she was ready called me and she has been free for two years. She has two girls, Hollee will be two in November and Destiny will be four. My son Greg is in the Marines and stationed in NC, did one tour in Iraq and hopefully for my sake he will not go back. That was the hardest year I have spent in my life. No matter how old they become they are still your children. He recently had me a Grandson, my first boy, Payton was born August 30, 2007. Amber entered 9th grade this year and Benjamin entered 2nd. Michelle has recently moved in with her boyfriend which is an hour a way, but she has a good man this time and I see her life changing. The girls adore Randy and all I can say is. Thank God... I thank him for giving her the courage to walk away. So many leave in body bags. I have zero tolerance for two things..one violence and two drugs. My sister Sherry Varner still lives in Newark, Ohio and her daughter is a senior this year. Meg is growing like there is no tomorrow. My parents, like myself growing older. They still live in the hills of WV and we go home as much as we can. My new step children Kylie and Tyler are great kids. There mother Melissa has done an awesome job. my new contact email is debbiewtl@bellsouth.net  or I can be reached at debmiller30830@hotmail.com  I do have a myspace with picture's but it is set at private. Hope all are doing well and enjoying life. 1/30/08

Craig Wisecup, Class of 1985, A brief summary of what I've been doing? whew... where do I start? I joined the Navy immediately after graduation and saw the world. Since then I lived in TN for 12 years, and just came back to Ohio in 2001. I only made it back to Greenfield just in March of 2004. I have 3 wonderful children who are 17, 14, and 10. My 17 yr old is Matthew... and the poor kid looks just like me when I graduated high school. I had always hoped, for his sake, he would grow out of his close likeness to his dear ol dad... though luckily he isn't as skinny as I was! I was married just over 17 years, but last year went through a divorce. Which is how I wound up in Greenfield. The most amazing thing is that when I was a kid, Benny Zickafoose used to boss me around on the playground. Now, I work for the guy! Will wonders never cease? I'd love to hear from any and all of you out there. I was gone so long from Greenfield I feel as if I hardly know anyone here. But, life goes on, and so do I. Feel free to write me at cawisecup@yahoo.com.

Susan Zurface Daniels, Class of 1988, 254 West North Stree, Greenfield, Ohio 45133, 937-393-4684, Hello everyone.  It was so nice to read everyone's biographies...  I've been very busy since high school.  In 1991, I moved to Hillsboro -- where I still live.  I married Roderick (Rod) Daniels in 1993 and we have two beautiful children.  Austin is 5 years old and Marissa Sue is 3 months old.  I attended Southern State and Wilmington College and got my BA in Sociology and Political Science.  Took a year off in 1995 after our son was born, then went to Capital University Law School.  Graduated with honors and then took the Ohio Bar Exam.  Became licensed to practice in November, 1999 and joined Conrad Curren's Law Office in Greenfield in December, 1999.  I am also teaching as an adjunct at Southern State in Hillsboro.  Marissa was born in January.  My husband has been wonderfully supportive of my academic and professional endeavors.   He is a general contractor in Hillsboro (Daniels Construction) and also is a business analyst/ consultant and runs the Small Business Development Center at Southern State College.  I have been so busy that I haven't taken the time to keep up with things in Greenfield, so it's nice to see old classmates from time to time now that I'm working in town regularly.  Congratulations to everyone on your achievements. smdaniels@hotmail.com
