Oh, yes! I must add to the list of some of our "exemplary" teachers of days gone by... For example, a one Mrs. Smith; she "taught" phys. ed. and health/sex education at WHS during my few years there, 1973 to 1977. Perhaps, I shall refrain from continuing on, at least at this point. But, boy or boy, talk about an "education"...LOL

Alan, This was sort of directed to you as now I believe I know who you are, well kind of...one of the Norman "boys", right?! Which means, at one time, you lived next door to Dale and Debbie Hamilton. She was/is one of my best friends! I don't believe I ever knew you personally (as you were older) but I remember Mark and there was another brother but I can't recall his name at the moment. Joe, maybe? I just didn't put two and two together at first but then again, math was never my strong suit...duh!
Also, you might remember Dick Coffey if you were in the WHS Class of 71. Dick drowned at Lake Tahoe,maybe a year or so within graduating and I think he was a '71 graduate, too or at least, right before or after that class. They lived on Cardiff Place (the court between Tomberg and Chesham) but soon moved to New Carlisle after Dick's death. I don't remember Dick that well but I hung out with one of his sisters, Kathleen (she was my age) and my younger brother hung out with Dick's younger brother, Dan. Ginny, another sister was a couple of years older than I was but I remember her more than I do Dick. My Dad and Mr. Coffey were buddies back in those days, too. Not sure what happened to them but I think all of them eventually relocated to Scottsdale, Arizona or somewhere in the Phoenix vicinity.
You mentioned the name Bill Hilgeford on another post. I remember hearing that name and also, you might remember the woman who went missing and was found dead along Haddix Road in the mid 70's. She was from Huber Heights, her name was Bobbie Waymire and she and my mom use to ride together when they bowled at Capri Lanes. That remains an "unsolved mystery" but there was a recent article about it in the Dayton Daily News, a few years ago. I am a "true crime" buff so articles, stories and cases regarding real crime, interest me immensely. I also have two copies of "The Girl On The Volkswagen Floor", a book that is hard to come by now.
You might also recall when Monica Chapa (she went to Studebaker and Wayne and lived on Cruxten Drive at one time) made local headlines; gracing the cover and centerfold page of Hustler Magazine circa 1976/1977. I remember my mother and other mothers in the neighborhood thought it was disgraceful! LOL At one time, Larry Flynt and her mother were involved/lived together, if I recall correctly and that is how she stumbled into her short-lived "modeling career"...LOL
I know all kinds of "juicy tidbits" regarding Huber Heights/the people there, as well as Dayton but then, we've been territorial neighbors for centuries. I really enjoy reading other's posts and sharing mine, too!
As most of us know...it's a very small world - we also appreciate our memories and "the past" much more as we age...that is what has made us the people we are today!
On that note...Have a great six more weeks of Winter!

You have me pegged right Rose. We used to teade Mark all the time for having a crush on you (he's married now, one boy one girl).
Kinda shocking to hear about Dick, yeah he was in my class. I must have been a USAF Security Policeman aroaund the time he drowned, stationed in what was the Canal Zone in Panama.
You doubtless remember the utterly politically incorrect "war dance" the cheerleading squad did at home games. I wonder if they still do it??
