Since High School:

I have been living in Geneva, Illinois for the last fifteen
years with my wonderful wife, Gerry (nee Boesch, Conant
High School Class of 1967).  Gerry and I celebrated thirty-
one years of marriage in January of this year.

For the last seventeen years, I have been working for the
State of Illinois’ Department of Human Services as a
Business Consultant.  I work with men and women who
are visually and hearing impaired.  My major
responsibilities are to train and consult with the people in
the program on how to run their own businesses and to
be self supporting.

Gerry is the Firm Administrator for an employment and
labor law firm with offices throughout the Midwest.  Our
only son, Patrick, is a firefighter/paramedic for the City of
Glenview, Illinois.  Pat is engaged to be married in June
of this year to a lovely young woman, Meagan
Landwehr.  Meagan teaches fourth grade at Prairie View
School in Elgin.  We are delighted that Pat and Meagan
plan to purchase a home in nearby St. Charles following
their wedding.  With God’s blessing, Gerry and I are
looking forward to being grandparents in the future.

Overall, life has been good to Gerry and me, and we
hope to spend many more years together in our home
along the Fox River.  I am looking forward to seeing
everyone at the reunion in August.
