Happy Birthday!
When I first met the Skyway/Lakeridge/Bryn Mawr kids in the seventh grade, I never realized the impact they would have on my life, along with the Benson Hill and the Highlands kids. It is 67 years later and I still cherish each one of them.
It wasn't long before this combined group of kids started meeting up at the Rainier Theatre in Renton. To say that we were the bane of the Fey's exiatance doesn't do it justice.
I invited many of these kids to my 7th grade birthday. Little did I know that this was just one of the many crazy times to come. One day, soon after the party several of the boys were not in school. We were bused from the Benson to Dimmitt Jr. High and it was probably an eight mile commute across the valley and up the hill.
Anyway, when I got off the bus, I saw Tom Sepanen, Gary Peterson, Sid Shong, and Bill Packard sittng on the front porch. I later learned that they weren't there to see me. It seems that Sid had a crush on my big sister. What?
When Gary was dating Connie Nichols, he and Bill Packard wanted to make dinner for all of us at his house. Our parents dropped us off and we had a lovely dinner. It wasn't until 60 years later that Gary finally confessed that his mother cooked the diner and then slipped out the door to visit a neighbor while we thought we were being so grown up.
We all have so many memories of those guys. When a group of us were going to Tolo, Gary picked me up and he had somehow managed to get a large cut on his upper arm tthat bleeding profusly. We stopped off at the old Renton Hospital on the way to RHS and they stitched him up. Those were certainly simpler times.
After graduatiion, we all went our separate ways. However, when we have our class reunions we were all 18 again and it is like we were never apart.
Gary was such a kind, gentle person. Rest in Peace, dearest friend. We will nevver forget you. Maxwell
