Diane Cole

What a cool place (in more ways than one) to be. Who knew what we'd turn out doing way back when at Tolman. The joys of nature cannot be overstated.

I didn't know Bill well in school but got to talk to him at Sam's house before one of our recent reunions.  He seemed like such a nice, gentle soul who so loved his children and grandchildren.  His apparently enjoyed a successful career, too. Such a sad loss.

Congratulations, David. You have fulfilled your mother's dreams for you -- in flying colors.

The 2020 pandemic provided time for me to finish a novel (that's fiction based on experience) about growing up in Bountiful and working in Salt Lake City before growing old in California. "In the Shadow of the Wasatch" is available in ebook and paperback on Amazon.com. It follows an earlier memoir, also on Amazon.com, titled "From Rag to Riches & Ruin, My Times at The Salt Lake Tribune 1972-1998 & Beyond."

I've just self-published a historical memoir on Amazon about my 25 years working at The Salt Lake Tribune, from 1972-1998. Of course Bountiful is part of the story, as are ownership changes at the newspaper since my departure. If interested, find both ebook and paperbook at Amazon.com. Title: From Rag to Riches and Ruin, My Times at The Salt Lake Tribune, 1972-1998 & Beyond. There are some technical aspects of newspapering that may be less than scintillating for you, but you can skip around. Cheers!

Diane, thanks for your kind words. I really didn't do much. Was given way too much credit. Sam, Jane, Lorraine and Kent have the really broad shoulders.
Was nice to see you again. Hope all is well, and will look forward to seeing you again at the next golf outing.

Happy Birthday! You're just a kid.
