After graduation Joe went to college for two years at Western Washington in Bellingham.  He married Sally Boden (class of 1961) in 1961 and had two sons and a daughter. Sally and Joe divorced in 1980. Most of his working life was spent at the family floorcovering business (Miller's Interiors) in Lynnwood from which he retired in 1995. He married Judy Layton in 2004 after being together for many years. Their combined family includes five children, fifteen grandchildren and one great granddaughter who turns 2 years old on November 20, 2008. Since retirement Judy and Joe have been active in real estate investing, traveling, bowling and golf.  They  have a home in Smokey Point.  Joe has been an integral part of the reunion committees including the 50^th, and was a sponsor of the beer and soft drinks/mixers for both events in 2008 ,as well as sponsoring “scholarships” for the Faculty and Administrators to join us as our guests.

        After high school graduation, Laurel attended Edmonds CC and the U of W.  She married, gave birth to 3 sons and divorced. She worked in retail, then began a 21 year career at GTE (Verizon).  

"In 1993 I retired as a Service Training Manager.  Like eveyone else, I can't believe it's been fifty years.  I look in the mirror and wonder when I got that older overweight roommate, and why isn't she doing more housework?  My youngest son Alex is a writer in Manhattan,  I take a couple trips a year to see him and his family, and also take in a few museums and Broadway shows.  Sons Brian (a manager for a large paving company) and Bruce (a high schools teacher) live closer to home, so I spend a lot of time with them and their families.  There are ten grand children, which means I watch a lot of soccer, baseball, basketball and ballet.  I enjoy reading, gardening, traveling, politics, time with family and friends, and of course, moonlit walks on a sandy beach!  Still laughing, loving and learning.  I have a family obligation the weekend of the reunion, but I'll try to stop by for a while."

I'M STILL SELLING.  HOPE TO START TRAVELING IN MY MOTORHOME.  FUEL COSTS MAY CHANGE ALL OF OUR PLANS.  I'M STILL ACTIVE IN OUR TOWN.  CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, TOWN COUNCIL, COMMUNITY CLUB, LIONS, AND CIVIC.

Wow 50 years!  Doesn't seem possible since I'm still in my 30's (until I look in the mirror).  I've been married twice to two Dans, have two wonderful children by Dan No. 1 and several step children, whom I dearly love.

With two degrees in public health, most of my career was spent in the health care field in administration, teaching and community organizing.  I also helped start Island Strings and taught violin for 12 years.

Dan No. 2 and I live on Whidbey Island where I have lived since 1971 (he since 2000).  I keep busy with gardening, playing music, doing peace work, traveling and writing.

My daughter, Carissa lives in Seattle and is a mental health therapist, a life coach and a musician.  My son, Lyle lives in Beijing, is marrying a Chinese woman this summer in China, and plans to move back to the U.S. to go to graduate school.  No grandchildren yet....

Looking forward to seeing all of you at the reunion!
