Pete Huff - Election Winner 6/15/2008

Former McKinney City Council member Pete Huff will return to the council in the at-large council seat after beating community leader Sherry Tucker David by 128 votes in Saturday’s runoff election. Huff won with 1,562 votes, (52.14 percent), to Tucker David’s 1,434 votes (47.86 percent). Early voting totals showed Huff leading, 1,113-800, which means Tucker David had an Election Day. Advantage of 634-449. Huff said he felt wonderful and the election has been a battle.

“I’m happy that the work I’ve been doing has been recognized, and I look forward continuing it on a citywide basis,” Huff said. He added he is looking forward to discussing the options for making the appointments to city boards and commissions a more open, public process and making the city more transparent as a whole. “We need to be transparent as much as we possibly can,” Huff said. Tucker David did not return two voicemails left on her cell phone, a text message left on her cell phone, a message left at her home answering machine, and an e-mail to both of her e-mail accounts to respond to the results.

Tucker David currently serves on the McKinney Arts Commission, which oversees grants to community based arts programs, is the co-founder of the McKinney based Cross Timbers Youth Orchestra and is a former executive board member of the McKinney Chamber of Commerce. Huff just gave up the District 2 seat he had held for the past six years because his had exhausted the term limit in that seat. Huff will succeed Thad Helsley in the at-large seat. Huff and Tucker David finished one-two in the May 10 election, which also featured Marta Gore. None of the candidates received 50 percent of the vote, necessitating the runoff.

This is basically what he did for 18 years working for the State of Texas as a Supervisory Examiner for the Texas Credit Union Dept.. Clarence credits all of the teachers and classmates with having a positive influence on his life. If he could just have one more chance to redo those years he'd study harder, pay closer attention to make better grades and just wouldn't let his step dad have complete control of his life.

Janelle has 2 sons - one in Glen Rose and the other in Ft. Worth, and 3 grandchildren (2 girls and one boy). She retired in March 1999 from The Society of Petroleum Engineers where she was manager of Conference Programs. This involved an enormous amount of travel (half outside the U.S.) organizing conferences and exhibitions for the oil and gas industry worldwide. Janelle took retirement in March 1999 (actually just quit) and moved to Grapevine to be closer to her family. She is  presently managing an advisory firm for the meetings and exhibitions industry out of a home office as well as working for area convention and visitors bureaus. Janelle is greatly enjoying life outside of an airplane and hotel room and and not having to wonder how what is the language d'jour is each morning. She hasn't figured out how the hobby thing works yet, but hopes to have one someday. Janelle says she has only positive and inspirational feelings about NDHS. The most influential class (that she can define in financial / career terms) was the 2 years of typing. There was not much else available to women within confines of their expectations in the work world. The typing expertise got women in the door, they weren't "threatening" and it was up to them to make a go of it. She says that this is a fabulous website and opportunity to renew friendships. She is hoping our lives have calmed down enough that we can pick-up where we left off with our friendships in 1955. We've all changed but she thinks the core of what made us friends still exists and our maturity will open up our appreciation and connection with those we didn't "dig" at that particular time in our lives.

Logan, William H

whlogan@bellsouth.net

Well..... here goes..... I left Dallas as soon as I could..... joined the Navy and liked it so much I stayed for 26 years! Got a Warrant in 1967 and made CWO4 before I retired. Did two tours in Vietnam on the ground or in the rivers with the Seal teams as an Intelligence Collector...... lost various, but minor, body parts and lots of friends.  In 1973 the Navy decided that 2 ground tours merited something, so they sent me to the Navy Postgraduate School in Monterey, CA. to get a BS..... I chose Math, mostly to show up Nell Lawler, who said I would never learn it....... I did.  Magna Cum in 1975..... then off to play, one more sea tour and one more shore tour and retired in 1979. In '79 I went to University of CA @ Santa Cruz working on a Ph.D. in Math, but got a divorce instead.... went to work in computers and stayed doing that silly stuff till 1996...... arthritis has got me now.... I was a Navy research diver for many years..... that and riding submarines round....and did lots of work in High Pressure Gas diving, which wipes out the large joints in a body..... Navy or the VA won't admit it, but it do..... Well...... by now its 1996 and I puttered about for a year or so in Agricultural statistics in Ca.... and just hung it all up in 1997 and came to South Carolina to accept a teaching job in a Tech College...... then last Oct, we (3rd wife by now) and I decided we liked North Carolina better and in particular the mountains.... so here we are.... in Hendersonville .. all we do now is photography.... that and keep a Cocker Spaniel! Or vice versa! Run a small business doing fine art black and white work...... we have a WEB page up at http://loganphotographics.com..... look in...... I know about the spelling errors and am waiting for the next version of NetFusion to fix it all up and post some new photos.... Along the way, I have 4 wonderful kids... 1 girl and 3 boys...... Kimberly is married to a professor of physical chemistry and University of Miami and they have one daughter, Kristopher, #1 son, lives in LA and is a movie actor....Spike, #2 son,  is a Navy Chief Petty Officer in Electronics (as was I) and rides submarines (as did I) out of Pearl Harbor...... Kendall, #3 son,  lives in Budapest where he runs a translation and interpretation business in German, Hungarian and almost any other language you can imagine and is married to a half Hungarian/half Russian girl and they have one daughter.... Considering the miles and the number of times I've been rode hard and put away wet, I do pretty good. Walk with a cane and still get about well enough to teach 200 girls photography at a Camp here in Hendersonville...... now, there's a real job! I am back in graduate school, working on a Master's in Liberal Arts.... mainly in photography and Shakespeare! Go figure! Much to Miss Epperson's prognostication, I did learn to read and to write, too.   To see an example of Bill's writings, go to The Badger And The Archer

"After North Dallas, I attended Abilene Christian College for two years, but graduated with a Bachelor's of Music degree with a major in voice from North Texas State University. Later, after moving to Washington, DC, received my Master of Music degree in conducting from Catholic University of America. I moved to the DC area in 1963 where until 1967 I was a member of The United States Army Band and Chorus.  While in the Army, I began a part-time position in 1966 as Director of Music for the Fairfax (VA) Presbyterian Church which later became a full-time position and for the last 10 years I also served as the church's Director of Administration. After 34 years I retired April 2000. For a period of almost 20 years I was Music Director and Conductor of the Fairfax Choral Society a large community chorus and chorale. I have been very active in music in the Washington DC area and this has provided the bulk of my avocational activities, although flying (I'm a private pilot), golfing and computers have been interests of mine, as well.  My spouse, Eleanor, was born and raised in Petersburg, VA, and received her undergraduate degree from Mary Baldwin College (Staunton, VA) and her Masters from Univ. of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She taught high school for 30+ years until her retirement about 3 years ago. Since then she is working in a surgeon's office. She joined my choir at the church in 1972, and we were married in December 1973. I have two children by a former marriage, Larry (42) and Lisa (39). After 60 years of pain and confusion I finally decided to deal with the fact that I am and have always been a trans-gendered person, and in 1999 transitioned to become a woman, changing my name to Robin. I am finally whole and at peace with the real me

pnelsontex@centurytel.net

Patsy is living in Shady Shores, about 8 miles south of Denton. She retired after 25 years of personnel and Human Resources with Moore Business Forms, including a 2 year stint in Chicago at Moore's national headquarters. She has 4 grown children, 8 grandchildren. She has been teaching piano lessons for the last 2 years. Patsy enjoys going to the Bulldog breakfasts every January and July, where she gets to see a lot of the NDHS "kids." She keeps up with Gary Pursel and Kelly Parks through e-mail. Patsy says that they are trying to get a lot more people to come to the breakfast in July - and that everyone should get their calendar and mark the last Saturday Patsy was in Tulsa in Jan 01 and talked to Bobby Wood. It looks like the clan is gathering!

07/02/2006 - (From Patsy) my husband, Walter Gilchrist , died on June 11th. It was congestive heart failure. He was in the hospital, but was getting better. We were all looking forward to his coming home and getting into the rehab program. He was buried on the 16th at Swisher Cemetery in Lake Dallas. It was a military funeral. Walter was also an Eagle Scout. My grandson, who is also an Eagle Scout, played taps. It was a very emotional time for all of us. We then had a beautiful memorial service for him at the Lake Cities United Methodist Church. He graduated from Highland Park High School in 1951, served in the army, taught bio-chemistry at TWU and in 1992 he retired from Univ. of Texas Southwestern Medical School dept of Microbiology. You might still be able to see the obituary in the Dallas Morning News. I think it was on the 14th. His daughter also sent one in (she doesn't acknowledge my existence). You will be able to tell the difference. Please keep us in your prayers. The main thing is.. I loved him and he loved me back. Love to all Patricia (Murphy) Nelson Gilchrist

( Overbeck) Coleman, Mary Kay 

marykaycoleman@houston.rr.com. 

Mary Kay met her husband, Don Coleman, while teaching at Memorial High School in Houston. He was basketball coach and she was teaching history and government. Don had some great teams and retired in 1992 as the 8th winningest coach in the nation.  She and Don  have four children and seven grand children. Three sons live in Houston and are each is married and has his own business. Their daughter and her husband live in Austin where both are attorneys. After graduation from SMU in 1959, Mary Kay  became a high school teacher (what else did one do then?).  She spent 25 years in public education, mostly in Houston. Ten years spent as a classroom teacher and 15 years as the public relations director for the school district. In 1986 she was offered an opportunity to set up public relations program for a small mutual fund company where she worked until the company sold to John Hancock in 1994. Then went to AIM Funds where she is the First VP for Marketing Communications. AIM is the 8th largest mutual fund company in the nation today. AIM's website is at www.aimfunds.com. Mary Kay is thinking about retirement since her husband enjoys it so much, but she is a bit fearful of it as she has worked steadily for 41 years and seems to attach her identity to her work -- not good, she  knows. Her favorite past time is finding a quiet place to read a book. She also enjoys traveling, gardening, tennis, watching the grandchildren's activities, Bible study, meeting friends for dinner. Mary Kay says that the depth and breadth of education she received at NDHS has been the underpinning for any success she has achieved in other aspects of her life. While she has enjoyed every phase of life thus far, few fill her with the nostalgia as the golden high school years.
