Morton High School Class of 1976 35th Reunion

Hello Classmates,

This was our 7th quinquennial (Yes, I had to look it up) class reunion, and we still are finding enthusiastic classmates to be on the reunion committee and attendees of the events. And as a result, we keep having better and better events. Scheduling this reunion once again during the Pumpkin Festival was a big hit for many of the classmates, but for some of the local classmates who regularly volunteer for various festival events and booths had to juggle things to be able to make it. We’re glad you guys did!. Once again, there were a number of classmates who had never attended any of our reunions before this one and a few who hadn’t been to one in many years. Several of those people told us they had a great time and are looking forward to the next one.

Of course, we all had a wonderful time seeing each other, joking around, updating one another

about life’s journeys, and crying just a bit when we got the bits of bad news such as the passing of a few more of our classmates . But by and large, the time went far too quickly with not enough time to spend with everyone and catch up on everything. And of course, We miss you guys that didn’t make it!

Several new faces stepped forward to plan this and, hopefully, future reunions. We welcomed

Cherie Wenninger Wells, Debbie Landis Showalter, Barb Dallinger to the committee! The committee was a wonderful mix of experience and new enthusiasm. We all worked hard to make this happen and can’t wait to start planning the –gasp-40th !

We spiced things up a bit this time around by providing some home grown entertainment for the

Friday night get-together at the Optimists’ Cabin. Doug Roberts and Raino Trifonoff put a little band together along with a friend of theirs, Mike Yocum, and Angie Roecker Haven’s son Ryan to play a little music from our era. It turns out that classmate or two also play an instrument and might just have to show us what they can do next time around!

Seems like every reunion, some new technology comes to life to help us out. In 1981 for our first

reunion, we had electric typewriters, in 1986, we had the first computers with dot-matrix printers. By 1991 we had affordable color printers, in1996 many of us had cell phones and the Internet, in 2001 the Internet was really coming to life, and by 2006, we had our own website. Well, in 2011 we now have Facebook, and over 100 of our classmates are in the class group. This is great for us, because it allows us to message everyone for upcoming events and if something important comes along that we think everyone would like to know, we can pass that along easily. It’s also good, because many people are giving up their land line phones and are just using cell phones. That’s great, but it makes it a little harder to find people because cell phones are virtually all unlisted in the phone book, and not generally available on the internet as well. Also, many of you change your email addresses – sometimes without choice, like when Insight and Verizon left town for example. But your Facebook account probably won’t ever change, and face it, many people check their Facebook account more often than they do their email! The point is that we, the reunion committee, would like you to keep in mind that the hardest part of our job is finding out where everyone is every five years. Please help us out and keep us informed if you move or somehow make it hard to find you! If there is anything we can do until the next reunion, please “give us a shout,” or at least send an email!

Classmate Info & Updates (*) by class member’s name means they attended one or both of the 35th reunion events.

ACKERMAN, CRYSTAL* (Michael Klockenga) 6810 Shadow Ridge Road Lincoln, NE 68512 (402) 328-8634 Cell: (913) 707-7091 Email: [email protected] Employer: Progressive Electric, Office Administrator Children: Kelcie (23), Kylie (20) My family has lived in four different states during the past 31 years. We have been living in Lincoln, Nebraska—Big Red country—for the past five years. (We’re very excited that Nebraska joined the Big Ten). My husband owns a small electrical contracting business in Lincoln, and I work part-time in the office. Our daughters have grown up. Kelcie is a recent business graduate of The University of Iowa, and Kylie is a sophomore hospitality management major at Kansas State University. We all love to take family vacations and this year we spent a week in Palm Desert, CA to get away from the Nebraska winter. In May, we went back to Hilton Head Island, SC where we had vacationed quite a bit when the girls were young. One of my favorite activities is playing tennis, and I play several times a week with a group of friends so it’s a fun social time as well as some exercise. I’m excited to be able to attend the reunion. I haven’t been able to make it back for the last two so it will be fun to see everyone again.

It’s been 22 years of a happy marriage. I have worked for the Illinois Department of Transportation for 28 years. I played “fast-pitch” softball till I was 48 years old. I also play pool in state and national tournaments. I help maintain the family farm and lake where Chris and I enjoy time with our family and our two black labs.

Still running my construction business building homes in addition to being a professional bow hunter and outdoor writer. Trying to keep my sponsors happy, in addition to keeping me and my family happy, which isn't too hard! Hopefully retiring to just bow hunting for a living soon, but with 2 kids in college and another one on the way, it may take a little bit longer :-)

Prior to that, I lived in Detroit, MI and I attended college at Marshall University in Huntington, WV. I teach 7th grade English and will begin my 14th year this September. Regrettably, that is why Mike and I can’t attend the reunion. In the spring of 2009 my life dramatically changed for the better. I reunited with my junior high and senior high school sweetheart, Michael Fuller. We connected through classmates.com. He literally dropped everything to come to Texas to be with me. We are so fortunate to have a second chance at true happiness. This past July we made the trip back to Illinois to make it official – FINALLY. We were married July 15. Michael has introduced me to the world of motorcycle riding and I love sitting behind him on our Honda Goldwing. Although it has taken a long 35 years, Michael and I have finally come full circle.

I met and married Ricky July 26, 1977. I got out of the service when our oldest was born. I’ve had a variety of jobs over the years and moved a lot. We moved to Colorado 7 years ago and love it. I’ve had my own business for about 12 years, and love the flexibility it provides. Ricky had odd days off, and we like to spend it hiking, camping, and traveling in the RV. We are fortunate to have our daughter and her family in Western Colorado and love to spend time with them. We have both mountain and desert in our area, and we try to take advantage of what nature has to offer. We’ve recently moved (again!) to be closer to the hospital Ricky works in, giving us even more time to do the things we love. If anyone is ever in the area, look us up and we’ll give you the grand tour. There’s a lot of beauty in the area, and probably a couple dozen local wineries.

They have played in many places all over Illinois, Indiana, Arizona, Arkansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Texas, Missouri, Kentucky, and Wisconsin. We have had a lot of fun making long-lasting friendships with many of their teammate’s parents and families. We are active members of First Mennonite Church of Morton.

We try to vacation some place far south in the winter and go fishing in Canada or Minnesota in the summer. We have five grandchildren.

Worked 3 ½ years in Chicago, mostly as a pediatric nurse. Moved to the Middle East where I studied Arabic and worked in Saudi Arabia. Met my husband-to-be while he was in Egypt. We lived there and the United Arab Emirates, then more recently in Lebanon where my husband taught English. We had 4 daughters during those years. We spent 8 years in Morton between our time in the UAE and Lebanon. Our daughters put down some emotional ties to Morton because of those 8 years, but also dream of traveling in their future. We have returned to Morton for 2 years while my husband studies at Illinois State University for a PhD. and are planning to return to Beirut, Lebanon in 2012—as long as John can get his job back over there, and things stay calm in the Middle East. It’s surreal to me while in Morton to have my daughters walking the halls of MJHS & MHS where I walked so many years ago.

Lived in Texas for 22 years. Moved back in 2006 and bought our first house. It was built in 1906 and has lovely woodwork, pocket doors, etc. While in pretty good shape it needs a little work, so we "slowly" doing minor renovations. We found out we are not as young as we used to be, LOL. We both love the outdoors and enjoy more sweat equity in our yard and garden. Every year, we have less grass and more flower beds. It was so hot in Texas we never could grow the type of flowers and such that we now do. We were never blessed with kids of our own but we have always had dogs and a few cats along the way. The neighboorhood kids love to visit and we enjoy having them. They even help us garden sometimes. It keeps them busy and us young!

I was fortunate to live and work in Chicago, Los Angeles, England, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Belgium, Japan, China, Mexico, Philadelphia, New Jersey, and now Baltimore. One of the best things to happen to me since graduating was marrying Paul Koch from Morton! We had a wonderful honeymoon where we went on safari in Africa and have been living in an historical home in Baltimore since we were married in 2003 in Washington, DC. One of my joys this last year was becoming a grandmother to Madison Koch. Currently I am leading a biotech company that is working on a new medicine for patients with celiac disease here in Baltimore. We love to have friends visit us here and have been thrilled to have Lisa and Kevin Moser, Raino and Karen Trifonoff, Tom and Cindy Zobrist, Gib Rapp, Patti Vance, Joan Martin, Connie Stephens, John (Boo) Heubach, Bobby Williams, Christy Vincent and my mom and dad.

If you have any imagination at all, you will find plenty of things to do when you retire. Karen and I worked as a fencing instructor and Camp counselor, respectively for much of the summers of 2008 and 2009. We do travel quite a bit and split the rest of the time between St. Louis and Morton. So far since the last reunion, we have travelled to Europe, South America, Canada, Belize, Costa Rica, Mexico, and put over 100,000 miles on our car travelling to some terrific places in the U.S. and Canada. We have plenty of time now to visit all those friends and family scattered about the globe, too. I STILL love playing the guitar, and STILL listen to Rock 'n Roll at obnoxious volume levels. That will never stop. The one bad thing that happened is that my mom passed away, so many of the links to the past are now gone. When I retired, I bought some very nice camera equipment, and Travel Photography has become a hobby. I have taken over 60,000 photos with my now not-so new equipment.
