ROLL CALL TO ALL MEMBERS !!!!

[Wilma]

Lois, I missed Narvous's posting until this morning, too.  You know what I think?  I think he went back in and modified a previous posting, hoping that most of us would miss it.  That sure is a pretty wreath you have in your profile picture now.

I am positive that Narvous would have some great stories of his life's experiences to tell us, if we could just get him to share.     Working with the Baldknobbers, would be a great starting point.

Thanks for the compliment, Wilma.

Mama Wilma.. I like your profile picture too.
Although I thought you had gray hair.. not blond!

[Wilma]

I think I will just let that one pass, Ms. T.

Oops!  Let this one slip by me...
I'm Joanna Hunter.  I grew up in Eureka, my parents are Bill & Millie Cole there.  I have one sister, Diana Cole of Eureka; and one brother, Dan Cole of Baldwin City.  I met & married Marty in Severy (almost that fast!) and we're getting ready to celebrate our 25th anniversary this summer.  We have two of the best kids in the history of great kids. 
Clay is 19 and going to college at Pittsburg State.  He'll be home for the summer, I can't wait!
Chris is 23 and finishing up a Marketing degree at K-State this year.  He's working for GTM Sportswear.  His wife, Dana graduated K-State last weekend and is starting her Masters for Gerontology.
Except for our time at college, Marty & I have always lived in small towns in South East Kansas.  It's where we want to be.  Last fall, we were able to move back to Howard, where Marty grew up.  We're remodelling the house that's been in his family since the 1940's ~ a labor of love really (and lots of sweat)
I'm stubborn as a mule, sometimes talk too much, and just a bit ornery.  That's me in a nutshell, (where some say I truely belong!)

I don't know what you are doing to the inside of that old house.. but I can say that what you have done for the grounds and the outside is looking pretty darn spiffy!

Since getting involved in a discussion this evening, I might as well sign into the Roll Call.

I am Karen (Hebb) Indermill and lived in Howard all my life until I went to college.  My parents were Cecil and Ruth (Hawkins) Hebb, both of whom were born in rural Howard, and all of their parents were also longtime Elk County residents.  My parents and all six of their children graduated from Howard High School/West Elk, so we truly have deep roots in Elk County.  My HHS class of 1967 will celebrate our 40th reunion this year.  I graduated from KSTC in Emporia with a degree in Education and have been an elementary teacher in Chanute, Kansas and Bartlesville, Oklahoma and now substitute teach on a very flexible schedule (when and where I want....)

Rodney Indermill and I were married in 1972 and will celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary in June. His job with Phillips Petroleum Company led us to live in various locations around the U.S., and we are now retired and living in Edmond, Oklahoma, a suburb of Oklahoma City.  We have two sons, Seth and Rhett, who both live in the OKC area.  Rhett was married to Amanda Johnson last summer. 

My dad became a partner in the Smith & Goodwin store during the 1940s, and when it closed in 1966,  he and my mother established Hebb's Family Store until his death in 1973.  She continued running the store until her retirement in 1979.  I have many fond memories related to being part of a family business on Main Street.

I stay busy with substitute teaching and volunteer work and am trying to get organized with compiling family genealogy information.  In my free time, I love to play the piano and read (but not at the same time....................).

We enjoy "coming home" to visit in Howard often and own two houses here.  One we stay in, and one we rent out to teachers.  Life was good growing up in this small town, and we try to give back and help out to better the community when we return for visits.

Hey Y'all I just updated my profile to include my new Website.  It is a work in progress but for now I have posted a couple of pictures that I would love to get your feedback on. http://home.austin.rr.com/clarkdentongen/

[Janet Harrington]

I really like those pictures.  Is it possible for you to work with the first one and see if it will show better?

I like your idea of your web site.  Keep up the good work, Kevin.

[Teresa]

I like the pictures.
websites are fun.. but they are a lot of work too.
Do you have a lot of pictures?
