    Peter Peter Jirous (cpmp_peter@yahoo.com

  • Our home remodel is still in progress however we have come to the last phase, it's been fun but now it's time to finish and get a life. I have joined the local volunteer fire department and have achieved the level of Captain. We are proudly the second smallest fire department in the world (144 acres) behind only the Vatican City Fire Brigade (108.63 acres), that's our claim unless someone can prove otherwise. Visit our webpage at http://www.wtinet.net/~parkridgefd/.
     
    The greatest achievement since the hill is something that my wife and I have just finished and that is the adoption of a little girl from India. Her name is Koli which they tell us means budding flower, I got the impression that there wasn't a real good translation for it though. In any event she is the apple of our eye and is making strides in learning English and all of the other things that a two year old does. We are currently starting the paperwork on another and hope that it takes less than the three years that it took for Koli.

    Hope to see everyone at the reunion in August.

He is currently on a sabbatical leave for the year, and has taken a job in the building trades. The pace of the workplace and the type of activities in which he is engaged are still very new and challenging.

    "In December of last year, I--finally--finished my library degree at Dominican.  On July 16th, I started work with Chicago Public Library.  I am presently at the Woodson Regional Library, which is located at 95th and Halsted.  Other than the fact that my commute is now about 50% then it used to by, it's a great job.  I also like it a great deal more than working in a law firm."
    (updated 8/11/2004)

    PREVIOUS UPDATE from 2/10/2000
    "After six years of working as a legal assistant/paralegal, I decided that I was going to go back to school to get my Masters in Library and Information Sciences. This step was a big one for me as I after I'm done with work, I don't have a heck of a lot of free time. Suffice to say, if I went back to school, I wouldn't have any. I had actually started looking around for a library job, but most of the ones I found just didn't pay very well.

    So, I started back to class on January 11, 2001. On the morning of Monday, January 22, I came in to work to be told by the attorneys that I had been working with for the past six years that they were leaving the firm to start their own firm. They wanted to know if I would come with them. I told them I'd have to think about it. Regardless of whether I stayed at the Vedder or went with them, there were going to be certain risk I would be taking. I went to lunch with a friend and discussed it with her. I decided that I would probably go with them.

    I came back from lunch, and I had a message from the head of the library at the firm, Ken. He asked me to stop by his office. I figured he was just curious as to what was up and wanted to know what I was going to do. When I went to see him, he offered me a job in the library. I had worked in the library for five years when I started out at Vedder and knew Ken and the reference librarian Deb. They're really great people and they do their jobs really well. I have a lot of respect for them.

    As my friend said, it was a "no brainer." I took the job in the library. I haven't made up my mind as to whether I want to stay in law libraries, but I'm beginning to lean that way. I'll just put my energy into my schooling and getting used to my new job for know and worry about that latter.

    Also, from time to time, I see a past class mate of ours from SLS. Tony Cerda who went there for our freshman and sophomore years. Tony lives in Chicago, I think. He is a docked clerk for the firm of Rudnick & Wolfe, which is across the street from the building where I work. He's doing well, he says.

    Lastly, a reunion in 2004 sounds great. Let me know what's up. I'd be happy to do anything.  I can to help plan it."

Jim and Kristin Jim Valliencourt (val-tone@sbcglobal.net) attended a community college in Escanaba from 1984-86 and got my general credits out of the way. Then he attended Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, MI from 1986-90 and got a B.A. degree in graphic design along with a graphic arts (printing) minor. "In 1991 I moved to the metro Detroit area and worked at different design and marketing studios, mostly doing electronic production for the automotive industry. In 1993 I met the lovely Kristin Otto (a Wisconsin native) and we got married in 1995. In the spring of 1996 we moved to Black Creek, Wisconsin (between Green Bay and He the Fox cities) without any jobs lined up for either of us. We did this so we could be closer to our families (Kristin's parents live outside Milwaukee and mine are still in the U.P. and we didn't want to get tied down in lower Michigan.) 

In October 2004 Kristin, Ian and I moved from New London WI to Milwaukee and opened up a store downtown in the Historic Third Ward. It's called "Sprout!" and we feature clothes and toys for 0-6 year-olds. We opened up a little before Thanksgiving and so far things are going well.

What prompted this? Kristin felt that if she remained in the corporate world, even though the money was good, it would eventually lead to a heart attack. She didn't see much of our son because she was always working. We wanted to move closer to family. We wanted to raise Ian in an area that was more culturally advantageous than New London. We wanted to create a work situation where we could take turns working and staying at home with Ian. It's been Kristin's lifelong dream of owning her own business. I always thought that Milwaukee would be a cool place to live.

Allen Averill  (Allenave@pinenet.com)  "I decided to take a year off after high school and do some carpentry...some of you may remember that I have a lot family in the trade. The original plan was to do this for a year to save some money for college. That, of course, is not how it worked out. Five years later, with no money saved, I knew it was now or never. So I quite and went to college. I went to The University of Moorhead, in Moorhead MN. I Graduated with a BA in Psych and a minor in Philosophy (Bro Doug would be proud...that was the Bro that gave us about 600 lbs of handouts in Theology...right?) 

After graduating, I put out apps and went with the first place that hired me...The Dept of Corrections in MN. I started out working with Juveniles...that was hard but at times rewarding. I now work with adults in Rush City, MN. It is located about an hour north of the cities on I35. I am a sergeant in charge of the computer systems that run the place (..not IT..I actually run the door opening programs/ camera monitoring etc.) I also am involved in some training programs for the staff that work there. People skills and verbal skills...that sort of thing.

I am still single, but one day hope to change that...just ain't met the right girl yet I suppose.
The reunion sounds fun, I will try to make it. As long as I know 6 months in advance...I should be able to get the time off.

Brian...great job on the site dude...I gotta tell you.. when you called me out of nowhere...I was in shock. I have often wondered whatever happened to the old SLS crew...'Specially the old cronies that I used to hang out with (D&D ROCKS) <ain't played since I left...but where else you gonna find that kind of forced free time? The black sword still rules!>

I must admit that I was a bit surprised in going through the site that not many have actually gone on to join the priesthood. I thought both Peter M and Charles C were a lock! Hell If I remember right we called 'em Father Pete and Bro Charles!! I also thought Dan B. was gonna be the sleeper dark horse that joined up and surprised everyone. I could see him as the Harley riding..chain smokin' bro that spoke to the kids..

Brian...I thought you too maybe might have joined the ranks. When you first called...It had been so long...I had a hard time remembering you. But then it came back. You were the guy who joined Senior/Junior year from another Seminary ( I hope I got this right). Crosiers(sp?) I think...Junior year as I remember. I remember talking with you down in the lounge when you got there. [note from Brian: I joined SLS senior year after transferring from Precious Blood Seminary in Liberty, MO]

I got a question for everyone...does anyone know what ever happened to Tim Scott...The fearless German leader that was dorm supervisor for Junior year and teacher for the German class? How-a-bout Fr. Bill that taught Spanish? Bro Doug...with the 600 lbs of Philosophy handouts...I wonder about those guys...

I guess maybe I have been ramblin' a bit here, but this site has really struck a chord. Please let me and the rest know what you have been up to...

Brian...you have done a good bit of work here...Thank you!!"

Moved to Colorado after graduation and held various jobs while attending school.  Only spent about 2 years working in the design industry before jumping into healthcare.  In September 2000, moved to San Juan, Puerto Rico with one other colleague to start the first managed care Medicare plan called Medicare y Mucho Mas on the island.  Currently we serve over 45,000 Medicare beneficiaries in Puerto Rico and were hoping to expand to the US Virgin Islands soon.  Life in the Caribbean is great -- I hope I never see snow again.  Although I speak a little Spanish, it still needs significant improvement.  Happy to see so many of you doing well.  Glad I found the website.

I'm happily married to Latricia and have three children - twins Leila and Madelynn (11) and Julian (5).  My mom and sisters moved to Milwaukee in 85. I moved to Milwaukee after graduation and worked/partied/went to school - not particularly in that order. 

I got into the restaurant industry in 88 and was a GM for various restaurants. I moved to Naperville, IL in 95 and lived there until my wife got homesick.  We moved back to Milwaukee in 99.

It's really great to see that everyone is doing well.  One constant in my life since SLS is that I have always been connected in some way to SLS.  Either through guys I lived/hung out with when I first moved to Milwaukee (Tim Celichowski, Pat Fennessy, David Murguia & others), friendships maintained/rekindled (Steve Williams) or, unfortunately, funerals (Bruce Gallitz, Carl Brown, David Murguia).

I am a member of St. Martin de Porres church in  Milwaukee where I serve on the Parish Council.  St. Martins is right next to St. Conrad House where Capuchins reside. Fr. Brian Braun was the pastor until he retired last month.  Fr. John Celichowski (class of 79) in now the pastor.  Fr. Brian recently celebrated his 50th anniversary as a Capuchin and invited many alumni from SLS.  It was great seeing so many guys from "back in the day".  It's amazing that, no matter when you attended or what crap you went through when you up there, we all share a bond that most folks can't comprehend. 

Currently, I am the Director of Operations for Advance America Cash Advance Centers.  One of my locations is in Fon du Lac.  Last year, out of curiosity, I drove up to "The Hill".  I have to admit it was a pretty emotional experience. 

I wish everyone continued success and look forward to catching up. 

Thanks Brian.

Since high school I have been married to Theresa.  We were married in 1993 and now have  three beautiful children.  Also, I am a minister in the prison ministry at my church.  Looking forward to starting a hope house to help ex-offenders that want to get their lives back in good standings and back on track with society.
