Profiles and Bios

 
If you are a member of the 1962 graduating class, or would have been if you had stayed at Wheat Ridge High, we would really like you to create a profile and tell something about yourself. You can always update your profile with current information. Your address, phone number and email address are not visible to anyone other than yourself and the website administrator. You can contact other Classmates through the 'Send This Person a Message' link below their profile.

This page has a 'Where Are They Now' button which, when clicked, displays a map of the cities and states where registered classmates live. You might be living near someone and not know it!

Check out the 'Sort' and 'Search' functions. The more classmates that register, the more handy these features will become.

Your registration helps attract other classmates to the site. The effectiveness of the website is a direct correlation to the number of classmates who register. Registering also enables you to post to the Message Board.

I was a bookkeeper many years, worked with special education kids for 12 years, retired from the Clark County School system.



I served on the board of directors of the Nevada Women's Bowling Assn. for 22 years.  I coached kid's bowling and was the coach of the 1997 Nevada State Champion High School Girll's Bowling Team. I also taught and coached a wonderful young lady who has Down Syndrome who won a Bowling Gold medal in  the Special Olympics in China.  Our oldest son was a member of the Nevada State Champion Swim Teami n 1982.



We now have a motorhome, and love to travel.  In summer of 2010, we covered 25 states  and British Columbia, traveling 9000 miles. 



My husband is the head of timing and scoring for the Best in the Desert Offroad Racing Association.



I love gardening, my water arrobics class, and fun times with my local Red Hat Society.  Love to travel, if you want to go somewhere, give me a call.

Comment: During high school, I was pretty much a student and not able to be involved in the social activities.  After WHS, I graduated from Colorado State College with a double major and double minor, hoping that would  widen my career horizons.  I was fortunate to teach in Jefferson County for four and a half years while putting myself through an M.A. from the Univ. of Northern Colo. the last three of those years.  After that, I married my husband, then moved to Georgia, Japan, New Mexico and have now lived in the Pacific Northwest for over 30 years.  I appreciated the outstanding education I felt I received at WHS.  I enjoyed my years of teaching (14) and was grateful to have positions in levels elementary through high school, college and adults.  During our children's elementary and junior high years, I volunteer taught in their classrooms giving their teachers free planning periods each week.  The schedule was great for me!  We keep very busy with many activities.  I do miss the blue skies and sunshine of Colorado...  Thank you to Scott for this great website and for managing all the information.  Thank you to Karen Thomas for finding and contacting me and to all the committee for the work you have done.  It is great to see so many of our classmates doing so well.
What's a favorite high school memory: Dr. Frank Oppenheimer working in Mr. Pratt's ( accelerated geometry teacher) room. Mr. Pratt instructed us to treat him with the utmost courtesy and respect. .
Which faculty members do you best remember: Mrs. Helen Knudtson, Mr. Harold Pratt, Mr. John Roberts, Mr. Charles Ellis, Mr. Work, Mrs. Purvis
What was fun to do in Wheat Ridge during your high school years: WHS classes, Elitches, MYF, Horizon Club
