Comments: Greetings, everyone, from Arlington, Virginia. I’m just 5 minutes from DC where I live with my husband, Noel, and son, Alexander (born in ’96). I received my BA from North Central, Master’s from the School of International Training and then quit my Ph.D. program midway through. I wrote for the World Bank for a year and then developed programs and proposals for an international non-profit for a couple more years. After being an active volunteer and stay-at-hom mom for 10 years, I’m now figuring out what to next…any ideas??? (Updated: 09/2009)

Comments: Hello All. It’s been a long time since I have been in the Metamora area. Never thought I would get back here and probably won’t stay too long. Just another stop along the way. After graduating went to Eastern and got my BS in Geology. Then went to Southern to get my MS in Geophysics. That took me quite a while to do. Worked for a company in Springfield, IL for 4 years as a geologist and traveled all over the US. Decided it was time to settle down. Went back to school for computer programming and am now a mainframe programmer at Caterpillar in Human Resources. I have no kids, never been married (thats in the works), but have two awesome dogs that live with my significant other south of Springfield. Send me an email—would love to hear from ya. |

Comments Wow…can’t believe it’s been 20 years. Yes, Chris and I are still married. We have 3 children, Anthony (20), Collin (13) and Erika (9). We live in Germantown Hills and love it. Currently I have been working for North Central Illinois Laborers’ Health & Welfare Fund for 12 years in the Employers Contributions Department. Chris has been working for Corporate Express for 5 years as an Office Supplies Delivery Driver. Things are still staying very busy. The kids are going all different directions and we just try to keep up. Hope to see you around sometime.

Comments: Hi everyone! I can’t believe it’s been almost 20 years. Crazy. I won’t be able to make the reunion, but I hope you all have a great time catching up. I’ve been living in Denver for 13 years now. Brendan and I eloped in Spain in 2003 after hiking across that country — The Camino De Santiago – 500 miles. That was definitely an unforgettable experience. I work for myself — as a marketing consultant. Drop me a line to say hello. I would love to hear what you’re up to!

Comments: 20 years?! Are you supposed to have memory loss by this age? I think I need to dig out my yearbook. This has been great to read up on so many of you. I moved to Tulsa, OK in summer of 1987 to attend Oral Roberts University, but due to some circumstances could only attend 1 year. However, stayed in Tulsa where I met my husband of 15 years, Buck. We have had our own business since April 1991. I am proud to say I have 2 lovely children, Logan, 10 and Lacey, 7. So glad to finally reconnect, and hope to see you all soon.

Comments: Hey Everyone! Wow it has been so long since high school. I have a wonderful 10 year old son, Jaron. He is my life! I graduated Midstate college in ’92 and ICC in ’06. I am a Occupational Therapy Assistant and love my job. I have lived in so many different places since h. s. I’m now living in Canton it’s a good place to raise my son with good schools. I’ve been divorced since ’03 but I’m currently in a good relationship with Alan. It’s interesting to see on here where everyone is living and how our lives have changed since h.s.

Comments: What a great find! It was fabulous to read up on what everyone has been up to since ’86. As for me, I’m still single, no kids, and living in Peoria (after a short time in Atlanta). I have been an Art Director for national magazines for the last 10-12 years and love my career. I now freelance Art Direct out of my home office with a great view of downtown and lots of freedom. When not working, I enjoy traveling. I’ve been to Europe 5 times in the last 2 yrs and hope to move there someday. I have recently decided to go back to school to finish my BA, so I plan to be in the area until that’s completed, but not much longer. I can’t wait to see everyone at the 20 year reunion, it should be fun.

Comments: Hey guys! I hope everyone is doing well! I have been extremely busy the past 14 years since grad. I am married to Mike Sniff(class of ’83) and we have 3 children. Andrew (Drew) was born in ’90. Tyler was born in ’92. Allyssa Noel (Ally) was born in ’95. The boys are very involved in sports and cub scouts. Ally is in tap and tumbling.

I’d love to hear from anyone! And remember, it’s not worth doing if you can’t have fun!
| Name: Anna Alvarez Maiden Name: Kemple E-Mail: beloved_4beloved@yahoo.com Class of: 1986Comments: We finally bought our first home. We moved in last May. It has already been a year! Wow, time really flies fast here in the Midwest. My hubby and I thought it would be the opposite after moving here from California, but in fact, time seems to go slower in CA. Belvidere surprisingly is a cute and quaint town. Still trying to get use to all the open land on everyone’s property. It almost looks similar to Metamora (and a bunch of other little towns). Sorry, we never made it to the 20-year reunion. We have good reasons, and boy was it well worth it. Did anyone take pictures of the event? Would love to see all the ’86 “aging” Alumni I mostly grew up with. Maybe it’s on a URL….? |

I moved back to the Germantown area a couple of years ago. My daughter Kelsey will be a freshman at MTHS and a football cheerleader. My dad always said pay backs were you know what! My son Andrew is 11 and going into 6th grade. He loves all sports so I keep pretty busy between the two of them. I am still working at National City Bank as an AVP in Small Business and work out of my home. I still enjoy all the summer activities on the water and have taken up golf…I’m addicted now.

Married 11 years (Good God!) Two adorable boys’ ages 6 and 2. Been running my own personal training business for 11 years, trying to postpone the inevitable changes that come along as we approach 40 by working out everyday. Haven’t played hoops since I blew out my knee playing b-ball when I was 6 months pregnant with my youngest. I have learned my lesson….I think!

Do we remember those books as kids – yea thats me taking taking teachers order. To network, anyone seeing this, I am looking for work closer to home in or around Columbia.

This site is a great idea. Has it really been almost 20 years??? Anyway, I went to ICC for 2 years before completing my BA at UIS in Criminal Justice. I worked as a Deputy Sheriff in Peoria County for 11 years. I served 7 years of that time as a K9 Handler with an amazing partner named “Elch”. During that time I spent time in Denton, Texas and Eberhahn, Germany. I’m currently a Detective with the Peoria Police Department investigating everything from juvenile crime to homicides. I’m still single, although I tried the marriage thing for a couple of years. I’d still love to raise a family someday. I work with other MTHS grads…Ron “Scott” Cook, and Beth “Hawks” Hermacinski. My folks still live in “town”, and as soon as I find the right place, I’ll be back where I come from. Feel free to contact me and take care! |

My wife, Sarah, and our three kids (James – 1998, Hannah – 2001 & Joshua – 2002) moved from the Philly Metro area to NC to be closer to Sarah’s folks. Been here almost 3 years now. I’ll finish my MBA (UNC) next summer (2007). I don’t think I’ll be able to make it back for the reunion (though I may be in Chicago for business around then, so you never know.) Best to all, Fred. |

I’m a Floral Designer-which I love. I teach and do set ups for the company I work for when I’m not in my store. I have been taking classes and will take my National testing in 07. I’ve done design work for the Rose Parade, Dodgers, and corp. events. I had to have surgery so I missed helping with the Academy Awards this year. After I get my AIFD I am hoping to teach at the college level and occasionally travel doing floral. I’d enjoy hearing from you and if you want to e-mail me put MTHS on the subject line or I’ll end up hitting SPAM. Enjoy the 20th reunion.

Comments: I took the 7 year plan through college attending ICC, ISU, and WIU getting 2 Bachelor degrees from ISU and WIU. Then I moved to Chicago and lived there 10 years. In the middle of that time I became a Christian and met my wife Sean. Our daughter Sofia was born in March ’03. I wish I could post her photo – she looks enough like me. Being a Florida girl my wife found Chicago winters difficult to live with. November ’03 we moved to Georgia. Since I couldn’t keep my job or firm once we moved I decided to make a career change and am now doing Reverse Mortgages for Financial Freedom. I love my job. We’re expecting another baby May ’05 though if it comes out a puppy Sofia would probably be just as happy. Take care yall.

Comments: I was fortunate to spend a year as an exchange student at Metamora High School where I had a wonderful time. This experience caused me to become an English teacher back in Germany. During my time at university I had the chance to go back to the US in 1993 and study at the University of Southern Colorado in Pueblo, CO. I even managed to make a short trip back to Metamora! I’m married and we have two daughters; Lotte (13) and Hannah (16 and currently spending an exchange year in Phoenix, AZ; brings back memories!!)
