I lived in Phillips for three years after
I graduated, attending Frank Phillips College while working for Chem Lab.
Then I got a job at the Copolymer Rubber plant.
I met Sandra Morrison at Frank Phillips
College. We married in 1965. We have two children, a son Mark who lives in
Billings, Montana with 4 daughters and our daughter Christy who lives in
Amarillo with her daughter.
Phillips was a good community to grow up
in with great friends. I remember fondly those years of roaming through
the canyons and working on cars. I also remember the trip the band took to
the Cotton Bowl and watching the movie Ben Hur. It was a lot of fun.
My jobs with Phillips Petroleum lasted
until I retired when I was 56. We had bought a print shop, H&H Printing,
between jobs at Copolymer and Philtex. We had the print shop for 25 years.
After I retired from Phillips I went to work for my wife at the print
shop.
I joined Rotary in Borger 12 years ago.
Without the print shop, I can now volunteer at Meals on Wheels and
projects with Rotary.
Sandra and I love to travel. We have taken
two cruises to Alaska, one trip to Hawaii, and a cruise in the Baltic.
Later on we traveled to Australia and New Zealand and took a river cruise
in Germany. The last trip we took was to Ireland and Scotland. |
