After more than 40 years, high school bonds and memories seem stronger than college ones. I am proud to help Nichols continue to provide an educational experience second to none in the region. As graduation approached, I told my classmate, Stephen Kellogg Jr. I would never forget him, and I have not. At the time, I wrote him a song as a reminder. He had said he was afraid I would become famous and disappear from his life. I only wish he were still here with us today.

Nichols gave me a strong foundation and understanding of what excellent education is. I am in my 41st year in education and feel like that foundation has propelled me every step of the way as a teacher.
