Comments: After graduating I went to Kearney State College where I played on the tennis team for 3 years and graduated in 1984 with a degree in Office Administration. I have worked in the Math Dept. at KSC, the County Superintendent of Schools, and my husband's real estate company in Kearney where I have been for the past 16 years. I have been married for 26 years and we have 3 children. TJ, 24, runs our construction company in Kearney, Danny, 23, who is graduating this May from Iowa State with a degree in mechanical engineering, and Kristin, 21, who is also graduating in May but from UNL with a degree in Animal Science. Hopefully they will both have jobs or else our empty nest (which by the way is great!) may not be empty anymore. As our kids were growing up they kept us constantly on the move with all their sporting activities. Since they graduated from high school, Tim and I have enjoyed traveling, biking, Husker football and our 2 yellow labs.

Comments: OK, technically, I am not a graduate of LHS. Even so, my roots are in Lexington going back to kindergarten. I left town in eighth grade, headed for Ravenna. After two years as a Bluejay, I spent three years as a Hastings Tiger (at least I was still Orange and Black!). Graduated from Hastings College in 1984 and UNL in 1986 with and MBA. Have been back in the area since 1988. Married Susan (Malone) Humston in 1994 and adopted her two boys, Adam and Jared in 1996. Our daughter, Taylor, was born in 1996. I have managed, and now own, Sign Pro in Lexington since 1995. Susan has 15 years experience as an elementary teacher and is currently the Manager of the Lexington Chamber of Commerce.

Comments: I graduated from Kearney State College in 1984 with BS in Business Administration/Accounting. Three months later I started employment with Dept of Health and Human Services, and have been there ever since, a short 25 years. Whoever would have thought someone with an accounting degree would be a social worker - hated those classes in high school, even though Mr. Davis tried his best to make them interesting. Three weeks after I started my job, I married Tim Carr, from Overton. We have one son, Drew, who is a freshman at Nebraska Wesleyan. Hobbies include watching Drew in anything he participates in - as he was very active in high school and now plays football for NE Wesleyan, scrapbooking, reading, yard work, and some crafts.
It has been fun reading up on everyone – and hope to see as many of you that can make it back for the weekend!

Comments: It's hard to believe 30 years have passed so quickly. After graduation I worked at several jobs in the area. I was divorced in 1989. I was remarried in 1995 to a wonderful man named Bob. We have no children by choice. Our time is spent helping the older people that grace our lives. Bob retired after 30 years in the military and from Becton Dickenson in 2009. I worked in the Laboratory at Tri-County Hospital for 13 years. I also became unemployed by choice in 2009. We are starting to enjoy retirement at an early age. Husker football is a very important event in our lives. I also attend the Daytona 500 annually, so racing is stll in my blood. Life is very good!!! Hope to see everyone in June.

Comments: I love this Website! Where should I begin. The first couple years after graduation, I bounced back and forth from Lexington to Pueblo, Colorado. In 1983 I enrolled at Hastings Community College, where I studied Business Management. My final departure from Nebraska was in 1984, when I moved to Phoenix. I enrolled at European Culture College, and got my Cosmetology License, in 1985. I worked in salons for 10 years, and then retired my scissors. I took a year off (95), and from 96-98, I worked in the Corporate Office at Dillards, in the Research Department. The company moved to Gilbert, which was too far to commute everyday. In 98, I took on a job at Chrysler, where I am still employed, in the Parts Department, and I love it! Now to back up a bit: I've never been married, but am engaged to long time boyfriend/Fiance, Greg. He is also the Assistant Manager of our Department, and although he's a Phoenician; he is a huge Pittsburgh Steelers fan. We plan to marry in October of 2007. Between the two of us, we have 4 kids; Solelil, is my oldest, she is 20. She keeps herself real busy with her jobs, she's a hostess, a bartender, a model & has been with Victoria's Secret for 2 years. Someday she hopes to be a successful photographer and would like to travel. I'm just hoping someday I see her on the front cover of my favorite magazine, Cosmo!) Next is Jared, (Greg's Oldest) He is 17, a Junior in High School, so far he's taken an interest In Becoming An Architect. He also works with us in the Parts Department, after school. Myles Jordan is 8, 3rd Grader, loves Creepy Crawly Things, & is infatuated with Dinosaurs...Last (and she is the last!) is Hannah Rae, she is 1 1/2, and already has a shoe fetish! Even though it's usually crazy on a daily basis, I wouldn't change one thing...

Comments: After graduation I attended Southeast Community College in Milford, NE (with a brief stint at UNL) and graduated with an Associates Degree in Architecture (Drafting) in December of 1982. Upon graduation from college I was employed by Paxton and Veirling Steel in Omaha and thus began my 27 year career in the steel fabrication industry.
1982 also brought my first marriage out of which we had two fantastic boys (I am not proud of anything), Cody who is now 26 and completing his graduate degree at Arizona State in Business and Zachary who is now 23 and graduated from Midland Lutheran College where he played football and earned his Accounting Degree. He just informed me that he is moving to Austin, Texas.
1984 brought a new employer and a new location, Greeley, CO Where we stayed until 1986 which took us to another new employer in Chandler, AZ. 1988 brought an end to my first marriage. In 1990 I remarried (what was I thinking?) and that brought two more boys into the family, Drew and Danny. In 1992 I was getting the itch to move back to the Midwest (better schools, better way of life I thought), so I found a new employer in Des Moines, IA and it was off to Iowa. We lived in a small town, Guthrie Center which was about 50 miles west of Des Moines and remained there until 1998 when I found out that my job was being transferred to Houston, TX, so in July of 1998 it was off to Texas where we remained until I got a call from a couple of guys that I had worked with in Texas and Iowa and they said I needed to come look at this job opportunity in Colorado which I did and accepted, so in September of 2006 I relocated to Fort Collins, CO.
2007 also brought an end to my second marriage (I am thinking I was meant to be a bachelor. I wonder if they have one of those reality shows for someone my age?, sorry for my digression).
In a nutshell, as of now (2010), I have lived in many wonderful places, got some fantastic kids, got a great job and I am single (3 out of 4 ain't bad). I work hard, play hard and try to get the most out of these wonderful days that the good Lord gives us.
Hope to see many of you at the (dare I say it) 30 year (ouch) reunion.

I have been married to Kami (Stewart) for 20 years and we have 3 great kids. Kaylan is a Jr., Nate is a freshman and Stewart is a 5th grader. The two oldest are at Westside High School and the youngest at Loveland elementary. Like all of you know, chasing the kids and their activities is plenty to keep you busy. If that isn't enough, Kami volunteers for just about every activity going on at the school and then calls on me for help when she needs it. Together we are Presidents of the Westside Athletic Club (equivalent to the booster club).
Kami's parents moved to Omaha a few years back and my parents have passed away. We still enjoy boating, camping, attending athletic events at Westside and all of our kids' activities. Can't wait to see everyone this summer.

Comments: I know that everyone thinks the same thing, but I can't believe it's been 30 years since I graduated from LHS!!
Following graduation, I attended UNL and acquired a bachelor's degree in Language Arts. I also became a certified Jazzercise Instructor. For the next ten years, I taught both high school English and Jazzercise classes. After baby #2 was born, I decided to quit both those things and just stay home and raise my children.
When my youngest was three, I returned to UNL and received my Master's Degree in British Literature, and I subsequently returned to teaching. I am also an independent consultant for a health and wellness company called Arbonne.
My husband and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary in the summer of 2009 with a Caribbean cruise. Our oldest son is an engineering major at UNL. Our two middle boys are in high school, and our daughter is in 6th grade.
We moved off the farm in the spring of '08 and now live in Nebraska City, just one block from the private Catholic school that I teach at and the children attend. My husband hopes that we'll move back to the farm after our youngest graduates, but I'm really enjoying "city life," and so that decision is still "up in the air."
For now, life is good, and I'm looking forward to seeing my old classmates in Lexington in June!! My parents moved from Lexington years ago, and so the only times I've been back to Lex have been for potty breaks on the way west when our family has traveled I-80 to Colorado for snow skiing!

It is amazing how God brings it all back around. Recently He brought Scott Kitzing's older sister, Michelle to our school, as she is serving as our Kindergarten/1st grade teacher at our school. It has been fun reconnecting with Scott's family.

Comments: Hello LHS 1980 Graduates!! I can't believe its been 30 years either! As for me, my love for education,kids, and cars still remain. I have lived my dreams, thanks to my great education from LHS, Kearney State College, and a few extra classes here and there, but most of all from terrific role models and Christian Faith.
After LHS and Kearney State I moved to Norfolk,NE. (1984) Today I'm still in Norfolk, and loving it! My parents, and my two brothers (and their families), also live in Norfolk. We have been blessed to have each other.
In 1985 I married Robert Crawford of Norfolk, and we just celebrated our 25th Anniversary. We have one daughter, Kayla. She graduated from college with her Medical Science Technology Degree and is a licensed pharmacy technician here in Norfolk.
For 20 years I have been in the teaching world, from pre-school, kindergarten, to third grade. I also, dedicated 15 years to teaching Sunday School and Bible School. The rewards were incredible! But, three years ago I decided I was ready for a new adventure, so I moved on to my next dream...cars. I now work full-time for a large transmission business here in Norfolk, which my husband is the service manager, and I am the parts and inventory manager. We see and work on alot of show vehicles and hot rods.
What's really been fun is that we employ some of my former students, and every year in school I preached, "Treat others with respect no matter what, because some day they might end up being your boss!" (They're now finding that out!)
Also, four years ago, after our daughter moved out and we actually started getting more sleep and a little more free time, my husband decided to start a hobby (for the two of us) called Lawn Care. It is now our "Lawn Business" on the side. We mow, fertilize, trim, and spray between 30-40 lawns a week. We NO longer have free time! Thank goodness we enjoy our jobs, our "hobby" and each other. There is absolutely no place I'd rather be than right here in Norfolk, Nebraska. Warm Smiles and Blessings to All!!

I graduated from Kearney State with a degree in Spanish and Math Education. I also have a masters degree from Bowling Green State Univ. (Ohio) in College Student Personnel. I have been married for 23 years to a man who graduated from Penn State and works in the food manufacturing industry. Due to his job transfers we have lived in Delaware, MIssouri, Massachusetts and now Kentucky. I have worked in residence life at the University of Delaware, managed a home day care, taught middle school and high school Spanish, and served as the youth director at two of our churches (in Missouri and Massachusetts). I just moved to Kentucky last summer, so am currently working on a plan for this chapter in my life. We have two sons: Zach (20) is a junior at Gettysburg College (Pennsylvania) and Brady (17) is a high school junior.
