Now

Gregory Johnson

Yearbook

Yes! Attending Reunion
Occupation: Retired - Healthcare Administration
Children: None! I knew a long time ago that I was not going to enjoy being a parent.
Past Jobs:

I eventually ran a hospital but spent most of my career in strategic planning, business planning, acquisitions, and medical staff development.

Employer:

A couple of the hospital chains.

What Elementary School (s) did you attend?

Petersen

What Junior High (s) did you attend?

Hadley

Where have you lived?

I have been fortunate to have had the opportunity to live in several different locations. After college, I had a job in Kansas City. From there, I went to Chicago, New Orleans, and now Tampa.

Famous or interesting people you have met:

Phil Donahue and Marlo Thomas. Their son lived in the same complex where I lived. Met them in the parking lot. John Kerry. He was having coffee in YBOR, a section of Tampa, waiting on a bench for his friend. I met Bill Clinton at his campaign hdqtrs in New Orleans. I met Barak Obama on one of his many stops in this State. John Travolta! Hell, this town is full of those damn Scientologists. So, meeting one is no big deal. You trip over them whenever you go out for dinner or to the theater.

Have you done something you told yourself you wouldn't?

Of course, that is why life can be so fun and challenging.

What did you always want to do that you have not done yet?

In all honesty, I have always been one of those persons whose head has been pointed upward my entire life. I would have loved to travel the galaxies. I guess this is why I am such a science fiction geek.

What would we be surprised to know about you?

I had a very active social life in high school. I enjoyed science fiction then and now. I read constantly and prefer reading to watching TV or working on my computer. I have written several short stories all were rejected for publication which would not be a surprise to anyone. I hated school because it was so restrictive in what you read and, even, how one thinks. I enjoy great conversations over coffee in an outdoor cafe. I am a great cook.

Steve was a neighbor, and I there could not have been a kinder person in the world.  Last time I saw him was at our 40th High School reunion, and I could not have been happier.  God speed sweet man.

Dear Alan:

I am so sorry about the loss of your sister.  I did not have the pleasure of truly knowing Jackie until my college years and when I was transferred back to Wichita for a short time.  I found her to be loving, charming, kind, and very funny.  I will miss her sweet smile.  I am not surprised of the accolades and awards she won during her l time in community theater and am not surprised that know one knows much about them.  Jackie tended not to "toot her own horn" but went quietly through touching so many people in the process  I started using the internet to communicate with her a year ago but quite in October in order to finalize my move.  I always thought I would talk to her later.  Obviously, I was wrong and later never came.

Please extend my smypathies to Jackie's friends and family.  You will be missed lovely lady.

Do you remember me?

Ms. Galvan was a neighbor and dear friend of my parents.  She was my Spanish teacher in H.S. and became a good friend in later years.  I am sorry about her passing but know that she had a lovely, fulfilling life.
