Business ownerI moved to Eastern Oregon & got married to Heath right out of high school. So it has been almost 15 yrs now....we have 3 children- Whitley (12), Troy (9) & Dean (5). We started our own construction business 13 yrs ago, and I have been managing it ever since. I battled breast cancer 3 yrs ago & won! I'm active in raising funds & awareness for the Young Survivor Coalition- through Amazonheart.org. I ride my Harley every chance I get, and just enjoy every day.Favorite memory: I still see & talk to my best buds (Angela Alt & Carrie Christensen) every day!!______________________________________________________________________________________Restaurant Manager______________________________________________________________________________________Student (Again)I joined the Marine Corps in 1995 and spent 5 1/2 years in the Corps until injuries allowed me to unfortunately receive a Medical Discharge in June '01. I was in a serious relationship with an older gal and we have a 4 1/2 y/o son together which is what is still keeping me in the San Diego area. Because of my injuries, I am getting Vocational Rehabilitation Training from Veterans Affairs.Favorite Memory: The friendship of everyone... accepting me for the time I was there just the way I was. The second is sports. I will never forget that year, sharing a winning season with Guy P, Ryan Barnes, Ryan Ikebe and the whole team which I remember almost everyone's name, but definitely everyone's face. If anyone does read this, know that you will be in my heart and life forever.Feel free to e-mail me, as I would love to hear from ppl, especially about the reunion which unfortunately a medical surgery kept me from attending.______________________________________________________________________________________Real estate agent____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Kassandra (Boettcher) Pankey
