Q: What is your favorite memory from high school?
A: When my mom gave me her old letterman’s jacket for Christmas my sophomore year. It was her father’s before her. It’s about 50 years old and my most prized possession!

Q: If you could choose anyone to have lunch with, who would you choose? Why? And where, locally, would you meet for this lunch?
