<description>Updated 11-Jan-2009. Am semi-retired from HP after 24 years. My wife Carol passed away in 2002; we were married for nearly 27 years. I remarried in 2004 to Mary Tunison. I've been living in San Carlos for nearly 30 years. For the past 10 years I've helped manage and run a couple of game conventions in the SF Bay Area (KublaCon and ConQuest/Pacificon). I am addicted to boardgames and now have in excess of 800 different games, including an extensive collection of games by Reiner Knizzia. I spend far too much time in the various wine regions of California, tasting and adding to the cellar. My favorites include Amador (Dobra Zemlja, Renwood), Russian River and Alexander Valley of Sonoma (Joseph Swan, Murphey-Goode). But my true favorites are the Cabernets and Syrahs of Kathyrn Kennedy winery in Saratoga. After 40 years I still keep in touch with Robin Beauchamp and occasionally with Rodger Lum, Pam Putman and Barbara Jacobson.</description>

<description>Updated 25-Jul-2008. Forty years, whaddaya know? Following graduation I moved to San Francisco &amp; attended City College, worked, didn't work, enlisted in the Coast Guard serving in New Orleans, the Mississippi (a river buoy tender homeported in Memphis) &amp; 2 and one half years in New York City (Governors Island). Following my return I became a commuter living in Fairfield, Oakland, &amp; now Concord &amp; worked at Union Oil Company, Xerox Business Services, &amp; for the past 9 years for a law firm, Thelen Reid Brown Raysman &amp; Steiner. I'm getting married in November, the first for both of us, &amp; I'm about as happy as I've ever been. (I'll be moving to Livermore, still a commuter!) I'd like to contact one of my old buddies from Awalt, Keith Gregory or Robert Beauchamp but haven't a clue as to their whereabouts. I'm not much for reunions (like how many of you even remember me or I you - certainly wouldn't recognize anyone at this point!) but I wish you all well. Fory years on, those of us who are still breathing can certainly be grateful that we are. I'm learning something about meditation at long last. Peace &amp; drop me a line if you are so inclined. Rick Thorne.</description>

<description>Updated  9-May-2008. Every time I travel with my family across the sea to enjoy theatre in London, a Parisian cafe, or the local French market to replenish our table with fresh baguettes, cheeses and red wines, I wish I could say I'm retired. Nowadays, one can find me directing a state-funded program at San Francisco State University to train county child welfare and adult protective services workers throughout the greater SF Bay Area, and beyond. Through the years I've worked in the private nonprofit sector in mental health, and for local county governments in health and human services. I guess I've always been attracted to serving the public and to community service, like many of us who were molded by the idealism of the 1960s and 1970s. I've also taught at the undergraduate and graduate levels for the University of California (Berkeley), San Francisco State University, and the California School of Professional Psychology. After graduating from Awalt HS, I took up roots at UC Berkeley where I received my BA and Ph.D. in psychology (clinical). My parents were very happy (did I say VERY happy?) when I finally left school to start earning a living. Maintaining a healthy balance between work and play is important, so I indulge in ballroom dancing, photography, travel, cruises, dining out, wine tasting, and walking the dog (not a great form of exercise since he pauses all too frequently, especially when he's nearing the house). Aside from stumbling across the dance floor in my best imitation of &quot;Dancing With the Stars,&quot; I also enjoy watching good romantic comedies, action films, and travel documentaries. I also think it's great to get reacquainted with old classmates.</description>

<description>Updated 18-Jan-2008. Hi all, I now live in Paradise, CA. It is up North, near Chico University where I attended college and got a teaching degree. I taught 1st and second Grade math at Pinewood School of Los Altos for a few years then moved to Paradise where I went into Real Estate sales. I met my ex in Paradise and was married for 20 years. Now divorced, I teach Senior Citizens the computer and take daily walks with my playful companion, Pepe, a Shih Tzu. I keep in touch with Anna Lee (Helgerson) Williams, Pam Putman, Bruce Benson, Elsa(Boberg)Kirkpatrick and Brian Helgerson. I enjoy Science Fiction, Metaphysics, and playing the ukulele. Feel free to send me an email.</description>
