DSrum / Snare
Well, what is up. I have
several kids now, but I don't know where they all are. I love
going out with the ladies, but I think I have slowed down for
now. I have been with the same lady now for 2 years. The only
problem is I keep getting her confused with the others. I am
a current part owner in the Ultimate Electronics corp.. I miss
marching band very much. I have been thinking of buying up
most of the top 12 drum corps in the U.S. Love to hear from
everyone.

Heather
Colorguard/Winterguard
After graduation, I dabbled a little
in college, but never quite finished. Who knows, maybe someday??? I
got married in 1997 with Julie, Lauren, and Cheryl right by my side.
My husband is a great guy, and we have two kids. Audrey is 5 and started
Kindergarten this year, and Nathan is 2, and keeps me busy!! I am a
stay at home mom and love it. We occasionally go to a football game
and it brings back alot of good memories. I wouldn't trade that time
in my life for anything. I would love to hear from anyone and catch
up.

Dalton,
Amanda
Clarinet
After graduation, I headed to the
University of Tulsa. I began as a music major, but suddenly realized
the real money is in education. So I majored in elementary ed. I also
minored in music for the fun of it. While at TU, Kim Williams and I
joined a sorority and learned how to have a little fun! And whatever
rumors you may have heard, it was all Kim's fault!
I began my teaching career in North Tulsa where I lasted four years.
Even though it was hard, I left my best friend and roommate, Amy
Rowin, and I then headed south to Dallas. I am currently teaching
fourth grade in Richardson, Texas and love it!
The biggest news of all is that I am now planning my wedding to Shane
Brown. We will be married July 17. We are planning to live in the
Dallas area. I still chat often with Amy Rowin, Kim Dionisio, Shelley
Nelson, Emily Gage, Jill Wahouske, and Trier Schneider.

Time speeds up as you get older... Turning 30 is no fun.
Have my first divorce under my belt, and a wonderful 4
year old daughter named Emmaline. I am the IT Director
for a medium sized PR Firm in Tulsa - now that leaving
Tulsa seems like a great idea, there are too many things
keeping me here. I still am in touch with Angela Vassar
and Mike Bailey. Maybe I will update this after my next
divorce.

Since graduating from OU in 1997,
I married and adopted two adorable little boys, Kyle (now 5) and Alex
(now 4). After being married for 8 1/2 years, Jim and I decided it
was time to part ways. I am now back in Tulsa, working at MCI and working
on receiving my Masters Degree in Counseling. After graduation in December
of 2006, I plan to work with Foster Children in the Tulsa area at a
local non-profit agency. I'd love to hear from you, please send me
an email!

Well, time for a new update.
Lauren and I had a little girl on 4/23/05. Her name is Addison
Layne. Geez, this whole Mommy and Daddy thing is exhausting! But,
must admit, it is the best thing that ever happen to us. She is
our little angel. Anyway, we are doing great. Still working for
WilTel as a engineer. Lauren is still doing the Speech path thing.
Life is good :) Check out our website for routine updates!

Well, 1993 attended SMSU
with Ceth Barnet as my room mate. Spring of 1994 attended Tulsa
Jr. College. Summer of 1994 marched with the Cavaliers Drum
and Bugle Corps. Attended TJC the fall of 1994. Relizing I
was doing nothing for myself or others I joined the United
States Marine Corps. From San Diago to Okinawa, Japan and then
to Albany, GA as a Seargent. Oh and was married and divorced
95-97. Met Jill who was also a marine. I married way above
my class. Thank God she has not realized it, But I think my
keeping her laughing she might never realize it. We have two
children, Lauren 4 and Alexander 2. I got out of the Marine
corps about five years ago and started working for a couple
of Eateries as Store Manager, District Manager then Region
Manager when I moved to Panama City, Florida. Now I'm about
to move to Nanty-Glo, Pennsylvania to finish my higher education.
Best wishes to all. Please forgive any stupidity you may have
witnessed in high school from myself. Please send me a line,
I love to hear from all. What happened in the last 10 years?

McAlister-Hurn,
Lydia
Colorguard/Winter Guard
After graduation I moved to
Texas with Brent Hurn (trumpet / class of '92) and went to UT for a
couple years. We came back in 1995 and finished at OSU. My junior year
I lived with Amanda Pierce (colorguard, class of '93). Brent and I
got married in 1996. Finished up at OSU with the pointless Psychology
degree and moved back to Tulsa. Now, Brent and I live in Owasso and
both work for QT. I work at the corporate office in the Information
Services department, and he manages one of the stores. We don't have
kids, just two basset hounds.
I have fallen out of touch with everyone, but I did just find out
from this website that I work with Kelly Klein (percussion, class
of '95).
Would love to hear from anyone, hope to see a bunch of you guard
guys/girls at the reunion next year!

on Afro
Update : In October of 2003
our daughter Brooke was born. I missed the high school reunion because
she was born just before it. She is now almost a year old. She's the
joy of my life for sure and being a Dad is a great experience.
I still work for Hertz as a Computer Programmer/Analyst. We are now
in the process of rewriting our rental car application using Java
(J2EE). The last two years have been really enjoyable at work because
I've learned about a gillion (approximately) new technologies which
keeps things fresh and fun.
I occasionally get an email from Ceth, but normally I just email
him and he doesn't reply. I get updates on him from my mother-in-law
who has to go to Tulsa Band from time-to- time. I still keep in real
close contact with Justin Chinn. I even attended his wedding in NYC
this past spring.
Oklahoma City is still a dump compared to Tulsa.
Update 08/06: Still in Oklahoma City. Still married to Heather. Brooke will be 3 years old this fall. She's awesome. Stillwork at Hertz writing Java code. Still don't have long hair.
Not much else is new... I wanted to add I have a blog that would probably be a better way to keep tabs on me than these every 3 year updates on this alumni page. Duncan and Jaime visit my blog regularly so I'd like to get more RR friends visiting. I've told Ceth 50 times but I'm pretty sure he just uses the internet to read about how bad the Cubs are in baseball. Anyway... I have all sorts of posts on the blog about how you can see pictures, get updates via email,etc.

Hope everyone is doing well . . .

Pate,
Mike
Saxaphone and Drum Major
It has been a long, long time since I have seen or heard many
of the names on this site. I was just emailed this link so I
thought I'd write my part. Post high school I spent 5 years at
the University of Oklahoma. I graduated in '98 and went to work
for Edward Jones as a stock broker. After 4 years with them I
was recruited to work as a commodities trader for Williams Energy.
July of '03 I bought into a motorcycle, ATV, and Seadoo dealership
which is in Fort Smith, AR. I will probably be planted here for
quite a while. I am dating but not married and no kids. Pretty
much the same as I have always been ;) Still enjoying life to
it's fullest!

Perritt,
Bobby
Trombone
I am currently living in Houston, TX. I got transferred down
here a few years ago with my job. I along with several others
work for WilTel Communications. I have been with the company
going on 5 years now. I have two boys, Bailey is 5 and started
Kindergarten this year and Bryce is 4 and will start school next
year. I am coaching my two boys in soccer, big surprise, and
they are doing very well. I am singing and playing guitar in
a Christian Rock band and we are getting our names out there
and doing really well. We travel alot during the summer to go
to different camps and things of that nature. We try to keep
at least one or two weekends a month open during the other 9
months to perform as people ask. We should be getting into the
recording studio to start on our first CD very soon. We are excited!!
Also I am on the Montgomery County Sheriff Department's Dive
Team. My job with them is not the most pleasant. I get the opportunity
of diving in the lakes around here looking for people who have
drowned, murder weapons (i.e. guns, knives, etc.) If a car goes
off the bridge we go down and get the people out of the car and
bring the car back up to the surface as well. This position doesn't
bring any glory to it all, as we are a search and recovery team,
not search and rescue. I hope you all are doing well and I look
forward to hearing from you!

Amy
Clarinet
After graduation, I spent my first year at TU. I then took a detour,
and finally graduated from OSU with a degree in Elementary Education.
I began teaching sixth grade in Jenks, where I have been teaching
ever since. (Except for a minor, three-week move to Colorado, which
proved to be a mistake.) I bought a condo in south Tulsa and am loving
every minute of my teaching career.
I still keep in touch with Amanda Dalton (soon to be Brown), Kim
Dionisio, Shelley Nelson, Emily Gage (soon to be Ford), and Jill
Wahouske. By the way, I am also dating Ceth Barnett.
Update 08/06 - It's time for an update - Ceth and I got married in March (06)! We are enjoying married life in our new home in Broken Arrow. I am still teaching 6th grade at Jenks and Ceth is busy working at a local music store and playing gigs around town. I still enjoy keeping in touch with some of my best friends from high school.

After graduating in '93 I attended OSU

Administration. After graduation I decided to take the plung and got
hitched. Currently I am part owner of the Sonic in Sapulpa and recently
bought a house in Owasso. No kids yet, but recently aquired a couple
of chocolate labs that keep me pretty busy. I hope everyone is doing
well & hope
to see some of you at reunion.
