We're Back!

Hi all,

This is great to read about "Old" (how did that happen?) brothers and get to know new ones. It is funny to read about our children and retirement and all...time has flown. I am living in Granville, Ohio, with my wife, Chris, and our two kids....Mallory who turns 21 next week and Christian who turns 14 next week. We are sort of in birthday mode here! Mallory will graduate this May form Marietta College and plans to attend grad school for Speech/Language. She is waiting to heaqr from OSU, Purdue, Case Western, or OU (I can't explain it...just glad I won't have to write the check to them!!!) Christian is an 8th grader at Granville and enjoys life...homework is optional! His favorite things are band, baseball, and math. Chris is the Marketing and PR Director for Knox Community Hospital.

I am serving Miami as part of the Alumni Recruitment Network and currently the principal of Mount Vernon Middle School. It is a great challenge with 1050 middle schoolers! I am enjoying everyday of it. I was offerd this position last summer and decided to leave my job as elementary principal at Granville Elementary where I had 750 K-3rd graders. Sometimes the two are much the same! I, like Jeff, am working on my PhD in Educational Leadership. I plan to finish around the time I can retire.....

I am looking forward to a chance to meet up with everyone and share old stories and help to build new Chi Phi memories for the new brothers. :-) Bill
