Lets see...after graduating from WAHS I decided to hang out in Munich and study, ok.. party for a year... at The University of Maryland, Munich. Left Munich for the great Lone Star State..Texas, where I decided to finish off my studies at the University of Texas, yes I'm a Longhorn, class of 88'. After graduation decided to head to Seattle, where I went back to school, received my wings and an associates in aviation business, jumped on board with Avis as a Shift Manager at Seatac, I have been with Avis ever since. Relocating to San Jose, San Francisco, San Diego, Coronado, Los Angeles, and now I'm in the Sacramento region, I KNOW CALIFORNIA, no GPS needed! In that time I got married, I have a great wife, Roline and three great kids: Andre 6, Margarita 14, and Olivia 16, and a German Shepard named Gunney. Ironically several years ago while Managing the Sacramento District the company had hired a new Expansion Manager, while getting to know each other he told me that he had graduated from WAHS, I asked what year? he said 83'...how weird is that...statisticaly what are the odds of that? Dave Ralston and I discussed the good old days. I miss cross country practice, running through the vineyards behind the school and along the Main River, track and Cross Country meets in different cities throughout Germany, like a Saturday morning in the fall, when it was cold and wet at...Robinson Barracks, Stuttgart, or maybe Osterholz in the north, and catching that 0600 bus from Schweinfurt and the Late bus after practice every morning. I did drive to school several times with my dads old Chevy Silverado Pickup truck, even though you were cruising 60 mph it felt like you were standing still in the right lane on the autobahn....Luck that I passed that DOD drivers license test. Hobbies that I continue to enjoy include flying, Skiing, kayaking, traveling, and I still enjoy going out for a run. Unique time...living in Germany during the height of the Cold War. Miss the friends, school and the great times. Will be traveling back to Deutschland this year. You can find me on page 28 of the 83 yearbook.

I'm probably still best described as a student -- I have an absolute passion for learning about all sorts of things. I'm a mom to an 18-year-old, who some days is a godsend, and some days reminds me why there are those creatures in nature who eat their young. :) My husband, Richard, passed beyond the veil about 6 months ago, and is quite missed. Beyond that, I still sing (with a Renaissance reenactment group), quilt, teach herbal medicine, study Druidry specifically and religions in general. And, of course, have enjoyed being a paralegal for 17 years. :)

I am very happily divorced and have a 16 year old daughter, who is the light of my life and keeps me on the go. I live in a small southern town where everybody knows everybody else (AND all their business). I work as a paralegal for a law firm in Hinesville, Georgia, which is where Fort Stewart, now home of the 3rd I.D. - Rock of the Marne, is located.

Song: Always and Forever to the class of 1983!
Date: December 27, 1999
Well, so many things have happened! Most of you that knew me back in the day, never knew that 12 November 1982, I gave birth to a gorgeous girl, Christiane Chennelle (Cunnigham) Harris. That's a story that I will tell further upon your inquiry... So anyway, after graduating from WAHS in 1983, I attended the University of California at Santa Barbara (unfortunately without Christiane) originally attempting to attain a degree in Economics (because I originally wanted to be an accountant) but Micro/Macro Economics just wasn't my style nor my niche! So I ended up taking a lot of Drama courses and finally graduated in 1988 with a BA in Black Studies...go figure. I then obtained a job with the top oldies radio station in Los Angeles, K-EARTH 101FM. Loved every minute of it! I soon realized that entertainment was my field but where exactly to fit in I didn't know, so I decided to take on as many projects and experiences as I could. I worked with a music publishing company for ! a year and then went on to do educational presentations throughout the Los Angeles/San Diego school district, utilizing my strong second language, Spanish; thank you Ms. Andrews! It was the best thing for me; especially since I like to be on stage! After 2 years with them, the government decided not to renew the contract and shortly thereafter I resolved myself to getting out of Los Angeles, it's TOO BIG and not too friendly. It took me an additional 3 years to get out and another 3 years to finally make it to Atlanta where I am so extremely happy. Now I am working with the TED! I am the Real Estate Administrator for the Real Estate department of the Properties division of Turner Broadcasting Systems, Inc. (a Time Warner Company)...by habit. I enjoy the every day challenges and we are handling all Turner acquisitions and leases worldwide! I am also enjoying a very active young man by the name of Surmier (Sir-My-Er) Telafaro Cunningham! He reached one year old, 15 December. This young man is such a shining star, if I may say so myself.  Just wanted say that it was Ms. McGhee who helped me to excel in Spanish and not Ms. Andrews. Ms. Andrews was an outstanding teacher as well but she didn't give me my Spanish skills.
Best Memory:  Being a Wurzburg wolf, ski trips, the carnivals, winning the basketball tournament in Munich in the last 3 seconds, etc. etc.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately I didn't graduate from WAHS, my dad contracted cancer and was transferred to San Antonio, Texas in 1981 to undergo medical treatment and chemotherapy. He passed away about two later. I graduated from Roosevelt High School in San Antonio, TX in 1983. After graduation I moved to Phoenix, AZ and attempted to go to college at ASU, but ended up dropping out after about a year (too much partying). I then moved back to San Antonio, where I met my first wife, Holly, got married and joined the Air Force. While I was in the Air Force I was stationed in Biloxi, MS, Prum Air Station, Germany and finally at McClellan AFB, CA. Had a son, Steve, while stationed in Germany and divorced my first wife while stationed at McClellan. In 1995, I got out of the Air Force after 10 years and went to work for Raytheon working on communications and radar equipment. During this time I also met and married my current wife, Diane. After 4 years of traveling all over the Pacific with Raytheon, I quit and went to work for Williams Communications as a Senior Network Technician. Finished my B.S. degree in Information Systems Management this year, 2001.

Since WAHS I've married with 3 children. I've managed to stay out of trouble. Unlike the days of WAHS. I would have liked to graduate WAHS ,but I came back to the world before my time. I worked construction for 18yrs. WOW it don't seem that long ago . I was with the same company for 12yrs. of the 18. Became supervisor of a 10 man crew. We installed boiler rooms, chillers, and some misc. construction. I have since started a new job. I work for Kodak Polycrome Graphics in the maintenance dept. I'm on the special projects crew. Working with the engineering dept. We make litho-graphe printing plates. It's interesting!!
Best Memory:  I don't have one, there are so many, Mr. Browns auto shop, Mr. Beggs math, OH, and Coach Sellers art much much fun. I guess most of all THE PARTIES!! I had much fun at the "82" junior/senior prom.

My Father was transferred back to Ft. Harrison my Junior year, so I finished High School here in Indy. I joined the Army after graduation and bounced around with the 82nd Airborne Division for almost 4 years and decided to get out. I got married while I was in the Army and we had a Son while I was stationed in Vicenza, Italy. I started school after the Army, but after two years I got divorced and had to go to work full time. I worked as a Broker for Charles Schwab for 10 years and couldn't take it any more. I became a Police Officer and have loved every day of my job since. I'm currently a Narcotics Detective with the Indianapolis Police Department. I'm on my second marriage now and we have the most beautiful little girl I've ever seen, she's 20 months old and my son is 17 years old now.
