If your youngest just got married, you must have grown up!!! I'm one of those rare BYUtes. I attended the Y and then graduated from the U. I married Michael Robbins and we are the proud parents of 5 children and 13 "extraordinary" grand children. We lived right next to Skyline High, on Ash Circle when we were first married and I taught school at Upland Terrace Elementary. We moved to Orlando, Florida and then to Atlanta, Georgia were Mike was the director for LDS Family Services and then Welfare Services. We loved the south and definitely left a part of our hearts there. We moved back to Utah 16 years ago and it has been good to be close to extended family. I just retired as a part-time medical assistant to a OB/GYN physician and we are leaving in September to serve a mission in the Czech Republic. We will miss not catching up with all of you! If you are in Prague in the next 18 months. Look us up! Love to all you Eagles |

Forty years, three major careers... I guess I still haven't decided what I want to be when I grow up! Ten years in Los Angeles as a Police Officer for the City of Culver City, (Home of MGM and now Sony Studios to name two.) which was seldom boring and extremely intense on more than a few occasions. A career ending injury and off into the world of software development for Airlines and Banks, using Assembler language and complex high speed real time systems. If anyone flies United or American, or has a reservation using SABRE, some of my coding was probably involved. The same for Visa transactions, as I got around as an employee and consultant over my 15 years in the field. It gave me the opportunity to live in Europe, see 15 countries and meet my future wife and soulmate. (Took me 10 years to get her to marry me though...) Now I am in a very interesting position dealing with the Chinese Government and major international corporations. (www.aaffg.com and www.bosonda.com.cn) It keeps me in Hong Kong far too much and creates a lot of 20 hour work days. When I can, I return to my home in the San Francisco Bay area. In the picture, I am standing on the Kowloon side at Ocean Terminal and the Star Ferry building. Behind me is Victoria Harbour and Hong Kong Island. The tallest building being the International Financial Center (IFC) in Central, with the Bank of China on the left with the white lights forming 'X' boxes. |

Comment:
Married Roger Sharp [Highland class of '68] 39 years ago. After U of U and graduate school in the Northwest we settled in Salt Lake City to raise our three children. Seems like a roller coaster ride of challenges and joys. Anxiously awaiting the arrival of our second grandchild in Dec. I have always loved 'nesting' and all it entails. Still enjoy work as a free lance interior design consultant. Teaching a variety of adult church classes over the years has resulted in a lot of introspection and spiritual growth. Two years ago Rog took the Arizona State Bar Exam. We now divide our time working and living between the two states. Memories of Skyline are mostly vague, however I do enjoy a secret smile when certain music from the 60's materializes. Looking forward to the reunion. September seems like the perfect time - autumn days , crisp nights, rekindling friendships neglected over the summer.....'til then....Terrie |

Wow! 4o years...unbelievable! I'm so blessed that I made it through my cancer so that I could meet up with all of you again! My life would certainly make for an interesting book. I have lived in the Teton Valley of Idaho (over the mountain from Jackson) for 10 years on a little farm with my husband of 12 years, my horses, my cats, the eagles, deer and occasional skunk. After working on a dude ranch as a lady wrangler for a while, I started my own bookkeeping company and I am also the karaoke DJ in this valley. I also am blessed to be able to share my gift of intuitive card reading with so many who are in a troubled place in their life. (One has to wear many hats in order to make a living up here!) My son is a realtor with Keller Williams in Salt Lake and his wife is a nurse and as of yet, they have not had time to bless me with any grandkids! We may not have much money but we have peace and freedom which is so important to this very independent old woman! Looking forward to re-connecting with so many of you at the reunion and hopefully staying in touch afterwards! Robyn "Angel" Sims |

Comment:
Attended the U of U for one year after graduation. Joined the 19th Special Forces in April 1969. Went on active duty in August 1969. Basic training and advance individual training at Fort Leonard Wood Missouri. Jump School at Fort Benning, Georgia. Gorilla Warfare Training and Special Forces Training at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Graduated as Special Forces Green Beret, Demolition Expert. Decided at age 21 to go on an LDS Mission - went to Scotland and loved serving. (Came to realize later on in life that who I am today was in large part a result of my military training and serving a mission. Learned a very important mantra in the military - Prior Planning Prevents Pathetically Poor Performance - or as we called it the 6 "P's for Success. My mission taught me that ones life in service to others is a life well lived. Came home from my mission and went back to the U of U. worked my way through school driving semi tractor trailers. Loved the open road and the big rigs. Married April Thompson (Skyline Graduate 1971). Although she's almost 4 years younger than me I thought I could train her to obey, but I came to realize after two weeks of marriage that she was the boss. It's helped me stay married for 35 1/2 years. Graduated from the U of U in Mass Communications with a minor in both marketing and Finance. I tell everyone I gos a BS in BS from the U and have earned my masters in BS dealing with politics for the last 10 1/2 years as Mayor of Murray, Utah. If I last one more term, I'll have earned my doctorate in BS. Politics is a tough business but can be very rewarding. Worked for several years in sales and marketing for Fortune 500 Companies. They wanted me to move around the contry, but I didn't want to leave the mountains in Utah. The last Fortune 500 Company I worked for was US Steel Alside. They sold the company and I was let go. But I always had others working for me on the side while I was working for someone else. Went to work for myself full time and made good money which I invested in land and other businesses. I now own a few dozen FedEX Franchises in England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland with other partners. I later sold the rest of my businesses as I've been too busy being the Mayor, but I have kept the land. |

| Catch us up on your life . . . : November 1997 - Elected Mayor of Murray City, Utah. Determined to make it the "Best City in America". I'm now in my third term. It's been a great learning experience about what's both good and bad in Utah and National politics. I gave a talk once in church titled "Christ-Like ideals in Utah Politics" of which there are none! Have five children and three grandchildren. I lost my youngest son Denver to a pain killer addiction in 2007 when he took too much methadone to help him get off the pain killers. He had no fear, but was hurt several times and had numerous surgeries and became addicted to the pain killers. We miss him, but life goes on. | |

Things I have learned since 1968 . . .:
It's nice to have nice things, but being nice is more important than having nice things. At the end of this life, we won't be remembered for what we had as much as we will for what we did with what we had to help others. Service is the key to happiness. "Hatred destroys. Love heals and builds. Those who chose to be lovers of humanity will have much more rewarding and satisfying lives." - Dan Snarr Favorite Quote: "What is the essence of life? To serve others and to do good." Aristotle |
