Diane and I have been married 34 years. We have three children, Jocelyn (33), Steve (29) and Brad (23). Josie is married and has two daughters, Kayla (3) and Alexa (2). Our granddaughters are the absolute joys of our life!
 
Athletics will  always be good memories from Tonka! Earl, Einer, Bud and a different FB coach every year. I had great teammates and “fun” playing the game(s).  We may not have won a lot but life’s lessons were learned.

One of those lessons for me was to “hate Edina for the rest of my life!” I still watch the paper and cheer when they lose!
 
I always tell other Mtka Alumni that the “class of ‘63 was the last
decent class to come out of Tonka” Some laugh, most don’t! For us it is the truth!
