50th Reunion
I graduated from KU in education and have taught school off and on. I’ve been married to Ron Wright of our class for nearly 47 years now; we have two children and four grandchildren who live nearby.

Ron and I invested in fixer-upper houses that we either rented or sold after they were looking good. I also spent some time painting window signs for various stores. I like to read and love living on our “farm” outside of Lawrence. We have just enough acres that it’s very quiet. Ron and I enjoy traveling, which started as tent-trailer camping and has graduated to bed and breakfast inns now.

50th Reunion
I’m retired, still married (49 years) to the same beautiful wife — Joan Bosze Rainwater class of ’60 — and have two children, five grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren.
Both our families still live in Lawrence, so we try to visit annually. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone.
