| Comments: | After graduation, endured a two year tour of duty in the U.S. Navy. I was hired in 1964 by the City of Burlingon and became a firefighter, retiring in 1986. Still being too young to retire accepted a position as a fire protection and security specialist for General Electric (General Dynamics). I went into full retirement in 2001. Probably being the oldest (30) to finally marry, did it in August, 1969 to Ann Ditscheit from Milwaukee, WI. Ann has her master's in teaching and taught at Edmunds and Williston schools until the children came along. She was then a stay-at-home mom to bring up our two children, David and Kathleen. David is single and lives in Chicago, IL. Kathleen is married to M. Tanner Trombly and they have two children, Aidan and Kiley, and live in Burlington. Nothing like being grandparents! Ann works parttime in Early Child Development for the State of Vermont. I still work parttime in the summers. |

| Comments: | Hello to all, who read this website. Since I am new to the use of a computer, this is a great medium to talk to former classmates. After high school, reality hit, and used the military for schooling. After a few years I grduated in 1961 from Vt Military Academy with a commision, and stayed active for 14 years, retiring as Captain.
I married a Rice grad (1961) Margaret Guillemette, in 1961 and have 7 children 4 boys, and 3 girls. 4 adopted, and 3 natural siblings. All but one live in Vt, the other son, lives in Naples, Fl. We have been stuck on 3 grandchildren. I worked 34 years at Shearer Chev Co, and retired 1995. My wife after staying at home to raise the kids, works at Shelburne Community School as their Food Service Director. Hope to make the next re-union. Dick Meunier |

| Comments: | Larry and I moved to Arizona in 1995 after our daughter Steph and her husband and 2 of our grandchildren were
transferred out here with his job. We would come to visit and the kids did not know us and our hearts would break so we decided to transfer with our jobs and are so happy we did. I have been with Sears for 25 years now and Larry is also with Sears but he is employed with The Great Indoors. It is a store also owned by Sears but you would never know it if you were to go into one. It is very upscale and quite pricey. The only way you could tell it was a Sears store is because of the Kenmore appliances. I work at The Chandler Fashion Center store. It is only 2 years old and only 15 minutes from Sun Lakes. Sun Lakes is an Adult community where the qualifying age is 40 and as we all know I fit right into that age group. So we are here full time and get back to Vermont every July for a couple of weeks. We missed the last reunion only by a few days as my Dad had passed away in May and we had his funeral at the beginning of July when everyone would be there then we had to get back to work. We surely hope to make the next one but in the meantime this is such a great way to keep in touch and get re-acquainted. All for now, everyone have a great day and we will chat later. Sincerely Patsy |

| Comments: | We try to get up to Burlington
as often as possible. We have a camp on 22 acres of land on Butler Island. Which is located between No. Hero and St. Albans. We have a boat to get there. If you look at the Champlain Islands map you can see Butler Island. We've been there since 1985. It's a perfect place to get away from all the rat race of life. I've been here in Ma. since 1960. Been mar- ried for 43 years. Have 5 boys and 1 girl. Five are married. All doing well. I'm retired and en- joy my family and do some traveling. Went to Italy last year,spent 5 days in Rome. Enjoyed every minute of it. I'm also very active in my parish. Keep in touch, Carmen |

| Comments: | Just a few lines to let you all know about my life after CHS. Married my wife Carol in 1962 and had 2 kids. Debbie is a self-employed accountant with 2 girls, Samantha age 14 and Michelle age 12. Our son Derrik is a sales manager for a office supply company and has 2 boys, Chad age 17 and Josh age 14.
Hired on at IBM in 64 and retired in 92. My wife Carol also retired from hair dressing. We sold the homestead in Winooski after 28 years and bought a camp in Colchester. We spend our summers on the lake and the winter in Barefoot Bay Florida(between Melbourne and Vero Beach on the east coast) I work part time in the summer at Burlington Country Club and my wife plays on the golf tour.....5/6 days a week with friends. Again thanks John for getting this website started so we can keep in touch with our classmates. Ron (Chebits) Brunell (Ron & Carol) |

| Comments: | Hi Everyone!
Thanks to the efforts and forsight of John, we are all able to keep in touch. What a great gift you have given us, John. Our family has been in South Florida since 1972. The weather was a main attraction, as well as a better job market for my husband, Will, and a health situation for our 4 children. Our twins Tim & Tom live in the area with their families..Tim 35 minutes/miles north and Tom in Miami 95 miles south. They each have a girl and a boy. Our daughter Mary and her husband and their son recently moved to northern GA. They are expecitng their second in mid-Feb. Our youngest son, Bill and his wife live in Eugene, OR and we were able to visit them in June of this year. If I had know we were so close to Royce I would have given him a call :-) May you all have a wonderful Christmas and be with those you love and have a safe, healthy and happy 2004. If anyone is in the West Palm Beach area, e-mail me early and perhaps we could speak by phone or mabye even "do lunch" God Bless Judy |

| Comments: | Would like to say hi to everyone. What a great idea, thanks John for putting this site together.
Just a short history of my life and my wife Pat's. We left Vt. compliments of IBM in 1972 and settled in San Jose, Ca. and have never left. Love the weather here. I retired from IBM in 1990 and started a painting business and it went crazy for the next 13 yrs. I am now fully retired and work for my wife on her honey-do list. Pat and I have 3 kids and 2 grandchildren. All live within a hour away. Sorry I didn't make the 45th reunion but will see everyone at the 50th God willing. Have a wonderful and holy Christmas with your families. Love to all, Ron |

| Comments: | Hi everyone,
This website is the neatest thing, and it's so special to be able to contact friends and get caught up on what's happening in their lives. Mike & I still live in Burlington, in our same "starter house" that we bought when we got married in 1963.( Can it already be 40 yrs???) After our CHS graduation I went into Nursing at St. Vincent's in Bridgeport, Ct. along with Betsy Allen, Kathy Fayette Bowman, and Mary Kadas Allard. We all returned here to work,& I was on a surgical floor at the old DeGoesbriand Hosp. After our 2 kids were born I did school nursing for several yrs, later worked in a pediatric office, and did some private duty pedi home care through an agency. When Mike took an early buyout from IBM, I retired also. Mike does handy-man jobs and has lots of "girlfriends" who just love him...most are in their 80's and 90's :-) He does the small jobs that others don't want to bother with, and doesn't charge a lot. We both volunteer at the funeral luncheons at St. Josephs, and I have been singing with the folk group there for about 13 yrs. Our daughter, Lori, lives in Maui, so we "suffer" and spend a month with her every winter. Our son, Jay, and wife Ellen have blessed us with Kesley Lynn, age 7, and Austin Jay, 4. We are fortunate that they live nearby, so we get to "spoil" them often. May all the richest gifts of the Christ Child fill your hearts and homes....Peace, Joy, and much Love. Mike & Carleen |

| Comments: | Hi everyone, seems good to hear from someone. I haven't seen anyone since I left Burlington in 1960. We have 4 children and 5 grandchildren. I have one grandson in the navy. He is stationed in VA. My husband had a severe stroke in 1990 which left one side paralized but other than that I'm doing good. He worked at Santa's Workshop in Wilmington,NY. I also worked there. Like to say HI to everyone and a Merry Christmas and thank you John for getting in touch with me. It sure made my holiday. |
