>> DR. MARTY VANIER: Tonight is about having fun and getting together and talking to everyone.
Catch up, have a beverage, have something to eat. Just enjoy yourselves tonight.
>> DR. MARTY VANIER: It is hard to believe that it has been 30 years. What's really
been fun about this reunion was the fact that so many classmates have come back and we have
our old yearbooks here and people are going through the yearbooks and are remembering
events during our college experience and are catching up with each other and life changes
and career changes and, and it reminds us of our experiences while we were in school
and the bonding that happened with our class and the particular relationships that we had
with each other and the experiences we had with each other and its wonderful to be able
to remember that.
>> DR. KEN BURTON: The fun thing about tonight has just been that the same personalities,
the same things that you remember about everybody 30 years ago and there’s a lot of people
that we haven’t seen for 30 years, that they’re the same people and you can just
pick up where you left off. The enjoyable thing this evening is we’re not talking
about so much what you’re doing in your career as much as what you’re doing in your
life, what you’re doing with your family. It becomes a little bit less driven by career
and more by what your life is involve with now.

>> DR. JOHN TEETER: Um, Boy, I had a great time in vet school. Oh, our class, by the
way, I think we still have the record. We’re the only class to ever have a group fail field
service at Council Grove. A record that still stands today.
>> DR. KEN BURTON: You know, its funny, because it’s one of those things when you’re going
through veterinary school, you hear of people who have practiced 25 years and you think,
gosh, those are the old guys and they’ve been around for a long time, but it’s been
the fasted 30 years, I think, I could ever imagine.
>> DR. KEN BURTON: Our time this evening to have this room reserved is done but I appreciate
Kite’s letting us have this room, it’s been a great time to see everybody.
>> DR. MICHAEL HODGSON: Today was perfect. The weather was great. Some of us played golf.
We got together at Colbert Hills here for a get-together again. We had Bill Snyder come
and speak to us, which was just the cake on the ice cream. It was just perfect, perfect.
Everything has gone well.
>> DR. KEN BURTON: Dave Adams from the Veterinary School is going to take our class picture
first and we’re going to take it out here by front entrance and then they like all the
spouses and guests and everything to join for a second picture, so uh . . .
>> Do we have time for makeup?
>> DR. KEN BURTON: Sure!
>> DR. JANET GORDON-PALM: It’s so fun to see everybody and what’s really inspiring
is the amount of turnout that we had. The more that showed up, the more we could find
out how everyone’s years going, how everyone’s life is going. It’s definitely a lot of fun.
>> DR. JIM EUBANK: But the best part, really, was seeing everybody and talking to them.
Catching up.
>> PHOTOGRAPHER: This is a close group, right? Alright. 1, 2 and 3!
