Comments From Sembach Folks These comments were submitted during December 1997 and January 1998. They are listed in reverse chronilogical order. If you would like to leave a comment, please fill out our comment form.
Special Note: Due to space and time limitations we will no longer post messages from former active duty personnel on this page. We're sorry, but this web space was created to allow dependents and folks associated directly with dependents to find old friends and classmates. While we realize that the military experience overseas was similar with regard to making and then losing touch with friends, we must resrict our meager resources for use by those of us who had no choice but to be there. Sorry.

I didn't have the chance to live up in the "bach" but knew quite a few of you all as we were the leftover high schoolers to carry on the Raider tradition. Just checking in. Kevin Schaevitz and I keep in touch. He has no access to AOL/Internet, but I keep him apprised of all info. He and I live in California about 20 miles apart. We both are planning to attend the reunion in San Diego this year. If any of you are out this way, let us know. I live in Newport Beach, married 6 years to a real California girl, we have three kids: identical twin girls - 3 yrs old and a new baby boy - 5 months. I graduated from Arizona State and would occassionally run into a fellow brat or two over the years. I'd like to catch up with Larry Teague. I've enjoyed watching his little brother play for the Dallas Cowboys, and now I understand he with Miami. Last year, during a Cowboy game, I would love to tell people, "His big brother was my defensive back coach in high school." Please help me get in touch with him. Hope all of you are getting what you deserve out of life. Keep in touch as often as you can. I know that we all get busy in our lives. Would also like info on Tammy Giron (1984 or 1985), Fred Yuss (1982), and Russell Gilbert (1983). Thanks. Rob Young - KAHS 1983 Date: Wed Jan 21 23:21:31 CST 1998 Name: Michael J.

It is during this joyful holiday season we reflect on family and friends. In doing so I think about all the special people in my life and am thankfully blessed. I pray that all know and understand the true meaning of Christmas; that it is not just a time of swaping gifts and trimming trees. It's the day which celebrates the beginning of God's plan for salvation. He shows His grace and mercy through the birth of His son, Jesus Christ, who lived and died that our sins may be forgiven. "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." John 3: 16-17 May God's truly amazing grace bless you and give you peace and joy - now and through the year to come! Always, Stephanie.
