E-mail: eyeliv42day@yahoo.com Hi everyone! I enlisted in the Air Force in Febuary of 1999 and went into the Intelligence career field. Im currently stationed in Omaha Nebraska. Man do I miss Texas. I have travelled to 5 countries in the last year or so (been pretty busy) and I make a trip home about once a year. I will be getting out of the service in 2005 and plan to attend school in Houston. I still dont know what I wanna be when I grow up. Good to see that everyone is doing well. Would love to hear from you all so feel free to drop me a line. Also, anyone ever considering visiting Nebraska..reconsider. Its way too cold and way too boring.

Kari Degeyter-Stringer (Class of 1997)
Location: Magnolia TX E-mail: karimstringer@yahoo.com Spouse: Lance Stringer Children: 1 Boy - Holden Andrew Stringer Born 2005 Business Web Site: www.heavenlyheartspageants.com Facebook Address: facebook.com/karimstringer Occupation: Teacher Bio: I married Lance Stringer of Little Cypress in June of 1999 and in March of 2005 we had a little boy, Holden. I taught elementary for 5 years then was able to quit for some time to be with Holden. After Lance was injured and had three spinal fusions, he was no longer able to work at the plant jobs he had been doing, but God blessed us when Lance was offered a dream job in the fishing industry. So we packed up and moved to Magnolia Texas where he works with Kistler Fishing Rods and is planning on opening up his own business along side of Kistler. I will soon be teaching again now that Holden is in school and we are settled in the new area. I also custom design and decorate children's attire and own the charity organization Heavenly Hearts Charity Pageants where each and every child wins and we touch the lives of many in their time of need. What I love most is is to get down in the dirt and grime with Holden as we pretend we are transformers or some sort of super hero, and treasure every moment as he is growing so quickly.The time I spend with my family is what matters most to me.
