Christy (Aaron) Dalton & Richard Dalton / dalton1[at]fidnet.com / Hi all! Here is the latest on my life. Richard (class of '90) and I just celebrated our 12 year anniversary (and happily we were together on that day--the Army was unknowingly kind enough to give him r&r during that time period). We have two wonderful children, Rebekah (10) and
Jeremy (6). We have built our house here in Rolla out on the "Aaron Farm". I learned a lot with building houses since Richard was deployed to Iraq (where he will be until Feb. 2005) in the middle of the construction process. I teach English at RJH and Richard still teaches up at Linn State Technical College. I am looking forward to seeing everyone at our next reunion! (updated 11/2004)

Looking forward to the next reunion. It's nice seeing what everyone is up to. This sure is a small world. My wife Marty is an alum of Texas A&M-Kingsville. Sound familiar, anyone? I'll see everyone in June.

Our students are senior executives from all over the world, so one perk is that I get to travel spend a week in each of 6 different countries (2 in Europe, 2 in Asia, and 2 in South America) each year to deliver portions of the program. Another perk is that I work in the same building as David Ridley, so get to see him and his family fairly often. While working, I'm also pursuing a doctorate in Higher Education Administration at North Carolina State University. In 2005, after 9 years of mostly long-distance dating, I married Karin Kivioja. We got married in her home town of Turku, Finland in an 800 year old cathedral. David Ridley and Mike Hachmeister were among the guests in attendance, and Mike's dad flew over to play the organ. Karin is a language teacher (Finnish, Swedish, German, and English), and is currently working as an ESL teacher at a local elementary school. (updated 10/2006)

Ran a pizza shop (Murray's Pizza) on the infamous Hawthorne Blvd. in SE Portland for 6 years. Sold the joint as my first kid was about the emerge. Small world: my current boss is Taylor Parsons ('87) husband! Been married for 9 years. Owned by two little boys, M.IV, 5, and Emmit, 3. They're little sh*ts off the old block. Been out here for just over eleven years and can't believe how comfortable we are living out here on the Left coast. Oregon is a paradise for outdoor people, especially during fire season. Still bashing the drums. Been a bunch more fun since Oregon has begin to allow blood-letting in a public setting. Haven't heard any new music worth listening to since Van Halen's "1984." I still remember the first time I heard it over at Godfather's Pizza in the Forum. Or was that "Dirty Laundry" by Glen Fry? Finally made it to Rolla this summer after ten+ years. It has changed, but it seems for the better. Rolla is a nice town, however, didn't fit in then and doubt I would fit in now. I have some illegal face tattoos that draw too much attention. I wish to take advantage of this great web space to spread rumors about class mates. Any good gossip? David James gots a couple alien babies he keeps under some stairs. Feeds 'em motor oil. I figure we are going to get old someday, and have to wear orthopedic socks, take daily enemas and wear diapers. Why wait? With age I have become a little more timid, ya know. Work takes more time than ever, so less time to drunk dial old class mates, still, watch out! (updated 9/2006).

Met my husband in '93 and will be married 9 years this August. We enjoy every moment with our three children Kylee (6), Lexie (4), and Peyton (2). I love being a mom and have been blessed to stay at home with the kids. Last year I home-schooled Kylee, and plan to do the same next year for her and Lexie. In the past Shawn and I were foster parents, but stopped 3 years ago, too hard when the children leave, but this spring we took back a former child, who is now 16 and her little 3-year-old brother. So to say the least, we're busy with 5 kids ranging from 2-16. I was so happy, Shashonie (16) has remained in our lives and we had hoped if she were ever taken from her home she would come to us. Shawn works at St. John's ER as an EMT, but is finishing his Nuclear Med degree. Wish I had seen everyone at the reunion, but was with Kylee at Church Camp. Hope to hear from everyone!
