    newHickLogoThank you to Kenneth Arnold, Class of 1965, for contacting us. Although the biography was hidden on the website, we thought our readers would like to read about The Dynamics, so we are featuring it here this month. We have a new article from Dr. Kumpikas and a new addition to Ron Wencer's Ancient Hixtory: an article about Leon Galloway! The Hicksville Gregory Museum is in financial distress. Thank you to Ryan Vicino for the article and information about how you can help.  We are happy our readers are using the Member Comments, and they appear at the end of this month's newsletter.  When you are logged into the site, scroll to the bottom of an article and leave us a comment!

One thing that no one knows about me is: I ran for my life on 911.

Now the hard one. Tell us what we need to know...50 years in the space below:

The past 50 years have been very good - Alan and I married while still in College and had an excellent life - we raised two wonderful children. Our son Craig is a Professor of Political Science at the University of Houston and is married to Colleen - my wonderful daughter-in-law. Colleen is a managing editor of the Petro Chemicals division of McGraw Hill in Houston. TX. They have my 2nd grandson Alexander who just turned 2. Our daughter Allison is the mother of my oldest grandson Darren - she is a single mother having divorced many years ago. She works in the Gilbert School System here in Arizona and she and Darren live with me. Darren is my travel buddy - so far we have been to Alaska, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, along with San Francisco, Seattle, Boston, Philadelphia, and most Caribbean islands. This past summer we visited 8 ballparks in 9 days on a Baseball trip - had a great time. Alan and I, while we are divorced, remain great friends - I guess I am very lucky.

Finally, if you had to do it all over again, I would...

Not change anything - I have had a fabulous life - I am thankful for everything that I have been able to accomplish.
