Craig's High School Friends

Grant Smiley married Andrea on July 3, 2004.  Grant has mentioned to me in not so uncertain terms that the old link I had to his website was one he did in high school/college.  Well I guess that he has a new website that I should link to... all right, here is the new link, but we'll keep the old link up for posterity sake... Mostly because the color coordination of the old site from a younger Grant is classic.  Grant is working at Procter and Gamble and Andrea is a grad student at Univ. of Cincinnati in addition to working full time at the Shriner's burns hospital for children (that sounds like a whole heck of a lot of work). They live in the same condo complex as Grant's grandparents in West Chester, OH and recently bought a boxSter.  BTW, Grant is in a big band....props to him.  Grant and Andrea are another Tom Herbort matchmaker success. As with Wendy and me, Tom was pretty taken with Andrea. To get to know her better, he invited her to a party at his house. At the last minute, he decided to invite his poor friend Grant who never went out anywhere...Tom needs to keep his ladies and his friends apart until he gets a woman of his own.

Matt Davenport married his high school sweetheart Christy in October 2002. They are living in Cincinnati, OH. Last we heard Christy is employed as an HR person for the city. Matt just graduated from Univ. of Cincinnati med school and has begun his general residency there. Next June they will move to Ann Arbor, MI so Matt can begin his radiology residency at U of M. I like to think I played a role in Matt getting this position, since I introduced him to a radiology friend of mine who happens to play tennis with the head of the radiology residency program. However, I know that Matt probably could have managed on his own. 

Tom Herbort quit his job and moved to Florida to become a musician.

Trevor Shibley is now working for Carnival Cruiselines doing lighting. He is not happy that no photo appears here of himself, but he still hasn't sent us one. Hint, hint...

 

Many of these are the same as Craig's high school friends. Those listed here are people we met in college.

Jay Palmisano, Craig's co-op boss at ENSR, will begin the PhD program in business at University of Kentucky in the fall. He says it was Craig who convinced him to go back to school.

Joe Menkhaus is working for Ellis and Watts in Cincinnati, OH. He owns a house in Mt. Washington and is the proud father of an incredibly naughty chocolate Labrador named Cheyenne. Joe has been sent all around the world to work on nuclear reactor chillers. We hope his Chinese heat transfer professor taught him well considering much of his work has been in China. Joe is still doing photography. He did our wedding as well as Megan and Josh's (see link below). If you are interested, please contact us and we will put you in touch.

Mandy Griffith married Michelle Bosse's brother and is expecting her first baby this fall.

Megan and Josh Develvis had their first baby Simeon David on August 3, 2005. They are both working for Dow Chemical Co. outside of Houston, TX. Their website inspired us to make one. 

Nicole Kulis and Mark finally married and are expecting their first baby this fall.

Steve Scott married following graduation. Not much after that, his baby boy came along. He must be about 2 by now.

 

Clare Dibble married Robert Felty on May 21, 2005. They honeymooned in the Galapagos Islands. Clare is beginning her 4th year in the chemical engineering PhD program at U of M. Rob is a German linguistics grad student.

Shawn Hunter defended his thesis a few months ago and moved to Texas to work for Dow. 

Jeff and Sue Henrickson and son Ryan just moved to the D.C. area where Jeff found a job.  Last I heard he hasn't sold his condo in Ann Arbor.  I bet he'd give you a hell of a deal on it.
