WWHS76 - Classmates

Western Wayne High School

		Name: Robert Tyler Since 1976: Hello, it's been 15 years since attending a reunion and many more since I have seen many of you. Mary and I married in 1992, and we have 3 daughters, ages 13, and nearly 11 and 9. Mary teaches Math at the girls' Catholic school. The girls are great students, like their Mom, and their primary after school activities are ballet and computer games. I have lived in the same area of central Calif. since my Air Force assignment in 1977. We are a little closer to Yosemite National Park than to San Francisco, and 86 miles from good snow skiing at 8,000 ft. I enjoy hiking and skiing in the Sierra Nevada mountains more than ever. I hiked to the top of the highest (although by far not the most difficult) peak in the 48 states, Mt. Whitney, at nearly 14,500 ft. We moved to a new house next to our church about five years ago before the real estate prices became really ridiculous. I have been a financial planner for about 20 years and have my CFP designation. My dad died 20 years ago and Mom is doing great in the same Tresslerville house. My brother Mike is in Elizabethtown, Bill in Pittsburgh and Tom recently moved to CT from the D.C. area. Best wishes to all for good health and happiness. If you need central California travel tips, feel free to contact me at yosemite10000@sbcglobal.net. (Posted: 10/11/2006)
