After high school I went to college at OU on-and-off while working full time. I have been in the banking business for 16 years and currently work for a local bank in Oklahoma City as a Fraud Investigator in the Loss Prevention department. In July of 1991, I married my high school sweetheart Denise Royland (MHS Class of ‘87). Our home is about a mile from Moore High School, so I can hear the football games on Friday nights from my backyard. This July 12th we will observe our 15th anniversary. Together we are raising three beautiful daughters (and having all girls makes you go gray faster):

Emily 13 years old

Katie 9 years old

Julianna 5 years old

As you can see I am at a big disadvantage being the only male in the house (even our little dachshund Molly is a girl). Getting ready for church on Sunday mornings can be challenging sometimes when all the ladies in the house are occupying both bathrooms. Ever had to dry your hair in the kitchen guys? Still, God has completely blessed me with my family. How great is it to come home at the end of the workday and have four women come up to you with a kiss and a hug? Denise is not only a wonderful wife and fantastic mother to our kids, she is also my best friend. She has a sweet, compassionate spirit and has a heart for helping people. Our children are all home-educated and are becoming lovely, thoughtful, well-mannered young Christian ladies. We are all active members of First Baptist Church of Moore. My ambition is to someday become a Biblical counselor and be involved in a ministry to help people overcome addictive behaviors. We love vacations to Colorado & Missouri, OU Football (no orange blood in this house) , and are big American Idol fans. We can’t be at the reunion L but it would be great to hear from those who knew me and Denise in school. Feel free to e-mail us @ mredman@cox.net!

I met Chad in 1991 at Oklahoma City Community College, and we were married in May of 1994. We have now been married for 12 years, and I thank God for Chad every day. He has always taken great care of me in our years together, and for that I am thankful. I could not have picked a better husband, or father for my children. I am SO blessed!! One of my greatest accomplishments in life is being a mom. I have two beautiful children, my son Blaine, who is "5" going on "20", and McKenna who is "3". Blaine has been playing golf since he could walk. We are hoping for another Tiger Woods! McKenna is the "princess" of the house, and can be “precious” and “awful” all at the same time. I never knew girls could be such TOOTS! My children make me smile daily, and I never knew how much love could be in my heart until God blessed me with them.

I have been a stay at home mom for almost six years, and have recently decided to go to nursing school. I am attending nursing school at OSU-OKC, and hope to graduate in December of 2007. I may be going to an OSU school, but I am still a DIE HARD O.U. fan! (Sorry Holly!) (BOOMER SOONER!!)

I am very much looking forward to attending the 20 Year reunion. I am thankful to Holly, and all of the other “Reunion Staff” for putting this together for the 1986 graduating class. See all of you in June!
