Comments:

We left Irving in 2019 and moved to Flower Mound, Texas. We are just minutes away from Grapevine Lake and Lake Lewisville is not far either. Lewis loves it now that he is retired. We just recently joined Bridlewood Golf Club and enjoying our sweet grands and plan to take a few trips once travel is back to normal.

School Story:

My work career during Lewis finishing his military career in Austin, Texas I worked as a Senior Secretary for three Economic Professors at the LBJ School of Public Affairs at UT Austin. I Retired from Irving ISD many years later.

Military Family:

I became a part of military life through the service of my husband, Lewis. He was in the Air Force during the Vietnam era. We married after his return and I became a military wife. Quite a learning experience for me and one I will never forget.

What was our school mascot called?

Big Irvi

Sorry to hear of Pete's passing.  He will be missed.  My husband, Lewis Russell  said "Pete was an awesome baseball catcher."  He loved watching him play.  May my Class of '69 friend and classmate rest in peace.  Lewis & Shirley Perry Russell🌹

I didn't know Jim well in high school but when my husband I attended my 40th reunion that year Jim joined us at our table and welcomed us and told us he was glad we could make it.  We had some good conversation about Irving back in the day and enjoyed our visit.  I found him to be very personable and friendly.  Rest In Peace Class of '69 friend.  You will be missed.
