JCI Reunion

Saturday on October 18, 2008, I was able to attend the latest JCI reunion at a local BARBQ restaurant. It was really great to see some of the faces (even if they are getting older) of the friends from Johnson Controls. Its been 14 years since I worked for JCI and we have lost a few of the folks. I try to attend each year because I did make some great people the 15 years that I worked for JCI.

In the front row, going from left to right is Joel Bryan, Barbara Oros, Dave Pierce, and Rhonda Morgan. The second row is Eddie Joe Power, Linda Mandulay, Frank Stone, Mike O’Brien, Me, Jim Fairchild, Shelly Newman, and Yvonne Field. Those behind the second row include Pam Kerpet, Bill Banks, Chip Fowler, Bill Elsberry, John Taylor, Janne McNeill, Larry Reynolds, John Matter, Randy Fuller, and Bill Newman. Not in the picture because they showed up after the picture was Trevor Conner and Mike Hughey.

The reunion was suppose to go from 3 to 6pm but it was after 7 before I left. It was so good to catch up with everyone.
