Donnie Diehl January 11, 2002
Don L. Diehl has been in newspaper business since selling the Columbia Daily Tribune on the street corners of downtown Columbia when he was 14 and a student at Jefferson Junior. 1994 grad of Hickman. Married classmate Marilyn Sue Niles. Divorced in 1986. Both remarried. Don and Janell have been married 12 years. He is grad (with explanation) of MU School of Journalism. Newspapers in Missouri – Hallsville, Ashland, Centralia, Marshall; Arkansas – Berryville, Paragould; Oklahoma – Shawnee, Enid, Cushing, Sapulpa, Sand Springs, OKC (Daily Oklahoman). Two children, Chris (retailer) and Marnie Tidwell (teacher), three grandchildren. Most memorable things about Columbis and Hickman: I worked at Pla-Boy Drive-In restaurant when "Javin' Jud" McElveyne(sp) spun 45s there. It was the "coolest" hangout in town. I could be found at the fountain making shakes or at the grill cooking steakburgers (not hamburgers) or assembling one of those double-decker "Pla-Boy" burgers. Worked through high school there. Still take mental trips back to visit curbhops and cool cars before finding shortcut into journalism.dd

James Fay December 20, 2001
After spending 2 years in Germany with the U.S. Army, I worked 20 years with the University of Missouri Police, received a BA from Columbia College, and then moved on to Public Safety Software training and development with a company in Lake Mary Florida (Orlando area).  I travel extensively all over the country dealing with police, sheriffs, fire and 911 centers.  I'm very happily married for 26 wonderful years and have no children.  We live in a house in a nice little wooded area of Gainesville, Florida.
I hope all you Kewpie graduates are having as happy a working and married life as am I.  Life is good!!  God bless you all. Every one.

Mike Grathwohl December 8, 2003
I skipped my Senior year at Hickman and actually graduated in August of '64. All of this, not because I was brilliant...quite the opposite. I attended a Seminary in Kansas City, my 1st year of High School. I was a "bobo" and had to repeat my Freshman year...so we moved to Columbia and I attended my 1st year over at Jeff Jr. Sharon, my sis...as you may recall..."loved" that...NOT! After Hickman, I attended the U of Mo for a year and then enlisted in the Marine Corps. I spent 4 years as an Air Traffic Controller in such places as Beaufort, SC..Futema, Okinawa and Quang Tri, VietNam. I ended my last tour as a Sergeant at MCAS El Toro, CA., in May of '69. I bounced back and forth between MO and CA for about 8 years...until I finally decided "California or Bust" for good. I then spent 13 years in the San Francisco Bay Area, and worked for Lockheed Missles and Space Co for 5 1/2 years. Married and moved to New Hampshire for about 8 years, divorced and moved to N. Carolina for a year. Moved to the frozen north (Minnesota...) and changed my name to "Nanuk". Been here since 1997. I have been in Engineering for over 20 years. I am a Sr. Engineering Designer for United Defense (a Defense Contractor) and have been here for 3 yrs. I work on Pro/Engineer...3D Solid Modeling CAD software and design electro/mechanical parts for 155mm Self-propelled Howitzers. I love the company and the job very much. I have two Yorkies and I do lots of landscaping and gardening. (..and snow shoveling...)
