My Monroeville is the Monroeville of my childhood. The town square, the courthouse, my grandmother's law office, the smell of the old linotype at the Journal, the sand covered "greens" at the old golf course, the Mobile bus coming into town on Alabama Avenue, the wonderful Monroeville of the 1940's. I wish we could bring it back again.

Stabler, David

Born and raised in beautiful Monroe County. Have recently moved to the Great Northwest, just outside Seattle. Did a 180 four years ago and left the tire industry to learn computers. Am presently working for ASA International. My old company Progressive Computer Systems was purchased in 1997 by ASA. We market software to the Tire Industry. I travel extensively, but do not get to Alabama very often. It is always nice to come home. Monroeville has changed quite a bit since I left in 1975. I do miss the South.

I was born and reared in Monroeville. I graduated from MCHS in 1977. I so loved my teachers, Don Jackson, Baby Bell, Merrilee Snyder, Mary Tucker, Winston Sessions, and Roger Johnson.

We have four of the greatest kids: Bonny is 17; Allen is 16; Molly is 14; and Tommy is 11. We always thought we'd raise our children in Monroeville, but God had different plans for us. We live in Gulf Shores where I will teach 9th grade English and drama and coach softball at the new Gulf Shores High School.

Starr, Frank

I graduated from Frisco City High School in 1979 and entered the Navy two weeks later. I graduated from Anne Arundel Community College in Maryland with an BA in Business Management and the University of Mississippi with a BBA (Management) I am currently working on my Masters in education at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA. I have an outstanding wife and the greatest son alive. Since my brother (sailor and Virginia Beach Auxiliary Police Officer) was killed in the line of duty in 1991 by a drunk driver, I have been very active in an anti-DUI campaign. I helped the Navy produce a training film about George (which was partially filmed in Frisco City) and I have done over 125 speeches on the subject. I think we are making a difference and have been fortunate enough to have been selected for a number of civic awards. My parents still live in Frisco City and I may find myself there when I retire in June 1999.
