**1969: **Married Sandi Horner and live at Sumner, Wash.  Have 3 daughters, Wendy Renai 7, Kristen Noelle 3, and Susan Michelle 9 mo.  I am the Safeway manager at Sumner and just recently celebrated the grand opening of the new store.  Outside activities include membership in the Elks, Rotary, beach combing and swimming.

**2009: ** A part-time job in 1956 working at Safeway every day after school lasted longer than expected. I became a Store Manager in 1966 and we spent the next ten years in the Tacoma area. In 1976-77 I administered the Seattle Division’s Store Manager Development Program in Bellevue. In 1977 came an assignment as District Manager in Missoula MT, then a move in 1983 to the Coeur d’Alene District, and another move in 1986 to the Spokane District. In 1993 I was sent to Cornell University’s Food Industry Executive Program in Ithaca NY. From 1994-2001 I served as Vice President Seattle Division in Bellevue and retired in 2001. S andra and I have been married for 48 years and have three married daughters. Wendy lives on Martha’s Vineyard MA and owns a real estate business. Kristen lives close to us here in Sammamish and we appreciate being able to see her family often. Susan now lives in Dallas TX and previously was with a law firm in New York City. We have six grandchildren. Having all these people in our lives is the best part of life. <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A couple of interests that began in high school continue --- cars and billiards. Recently sold a ’39 Chevy pickup and a ’38 Chevy two-door sedan, both completely finished street rods. Now have only one “toy”, a C-5 Corvette with a custom ‘53 Corvette body designed and built by a friend in Michigan. Several of us who worked together are car enthusiasts and enjoy going to collector car shows and auctions. In addition, Sandi became interested in antiques many years ago. That led her into buying and selling antiques, and it became an interest for me as well. <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After we left the area 30 years ago, we decided to sell the house at Warm Beach. Upon returning to Western Washington in 1994, finding something on the water was a priority. We found what we wanted, a beach house just three miles south of Warm Beach at Kayak Point. Being there is as good as it gets for me. Our place here in Sammamish has five acres with a small lake, and there’s always a lot to do. We’ve moved around over the years and this is our 12th home. We really enjoy being here, but there could be yet another move. Kayak Point for six months and Rancho Mirage for six months has been sounding better and better **…** <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';"> <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">
