Rick is a nurse!

Rick is the other guy on the right!



Congratulations to Rick Spalenka, class of 1968, who at 50 has begun his second career having graduated as a nurse the week of May 16th. Goes to show you that EJ King develops students who are never too old to learn new tricks. What is a landscape architect doing in nursing? He is specializing in therapeutic garden designs and horticulture therapy while now working part time as a psyche nurse.

He graduated with honors.  He is now stationed in San Diego as an airman apprentice. Nathan is attached to the Nimitz which just left port in May 2005 heading for the Persian Gulf.

Dale Tucker, 21 year old son of Cindy Hathaway-Dever, class of 1975, enlisted in the USN on Dec. 18, 2001. He had his pass in review ceremony in Feb. at Great Lakes Training Center near Chicago. His family travelled from Oklahoma and Maryland to attend this ceremony. He is excelling in his tech school training (1st in class at last update) and will be graduating from his electronics training mid-June of 2002. After one more 6 week long school which should finish sometime near the end of Aug or the beginning of Sept he will then be assigned to a duty station.
