Personal Comments: One year after graduation I married the girl of my dreams that I had been in school with since the 6th grade, Cathy Cole, who is also a 1973 KHS graduate. We have 3 great children and 9 awesome grandchildren. We have been fortunate to have lived in many parts of the world with my military service in the Air Force and then later as a Federal employee. Since retiring from civil service I spend most of my time with Cathy traveling or locally with our church family. Of course, our children are a big part of our lives. I did the college thing with undergraduate degrees in Criminology and Sociology. My graduate work is in Theology. For the past 20 plus years I have been a bi-vocational minister. Cathy and I have great joy serving our Lord and are blessed to have seen each of our children do the same and now to see our grandchildren do the same. We have also been fortunate to have been able to keep close contact with several of our KHS friends through the years. Military or other commitments prohibited us from attending previous reunions, although we had signed up to attend. We hope that another reunion will occur in the future so that we may attend. We did make it back to Kokomo to see family and friend on occasion and took in a KHS game during our visit. I will share with those I see the rest of our life journey then. God Bless you all. Go Red & Blue!

Personal Comments: 8/19/07 - I graduated from Indiana University with a BS degree in secondary education. My career however took me into the area of corporate finance. After moving away from Kokomo in 1985, I relocated to Stamford, CT working for Olin Corporation and Purdue Pharma. Along the way I went back to college to work on my MBA. After several courses towards the MBA, demands of my job took precedence, as did my marriage. My family and friends have always taken priority in my life, rather than my career. I was married in 1994 to Jerry Chiolero. My Husband, a native of Alton, IL is the most wonderful man I could've ever hoped to marry; he is truly my best friend. Jerry took early retirement from his position as a Director with Olin Corporation. Upon his (and my own) retirement, we moved to Myrtle Beach, SC. My Husband is a golfaholic and we both love it down here, (we've both experienced enough snow for one lifetime). I have four grown Step-Children who are dear friends of mine, 10 Grand-Children,3 Great-Grandchildren, and a beautiful black Cocker Spaniel Jasmine who is currently 9 years old. Unfortunately, I no longer have any family left in Kokomo. I have many fond memories of high school and would love to hear from former classmates. Take care all, I hope you are all living healthy and happy lives.
