2007 Update:
Children: , 4, Grandchildren 13, Great Grandchildren - 1
Family is my #1 priority. They all live in Snohomish County and we wish we could see them more. Went to several States to see kids and grandkids – glad they are all
back home.
We went with the Shooting Team to Germany and Sweden in 1975. Stayed with friends, explored a lot; had a fantastic time and went to Berlin and Finland. It was all very interesting. Hawaii for R&R and Snorkeling, the water is beautiful.
I’m still bowling and we are also rock hounding and going to rock shows. I string and hand knot beads and do some repair work. We have a Knap-In (flint knappers) here every May with lots of really nice people and a lot of fun.
We really love our little piece of Heaven in Goldendale.
From a 10-01-08 email:
Loretta (Johnson) and I have been retired since 1999 and that is when we
moved to our rural property near Goldendale, WA. We live in the center of 20
acres with a lot of wild critters around the place. We also have a lot of
Pine and Oak trees about the property. One of the first stages of
development involved building a rifle range with a covered firing line.
Since then, we have also built an additional pistol range to the side of the
rifle range.
Our kids and their families all live in the Snohomish County area with our
youngest daughter, Jodi, and her husband/family living to the north of
Monroe near Storm Lk. She is a lead Secretary for the Monroe School
district.
This year has resulted in surgeries for both of us and a long recuperation
period. Due to this and some other issues, we were not able to attend either
of our 50 year Class Reunions (LSHS & EHS).
I know that Loretta would love to hear from some of her fellow classmates!
Best regards,
Ed and Loretta Thomas
