Memorable Central College moments: Martin Luther King’s visit to the college during the midst of the turmoil of the 60’s; being carried across campus to the girl’s dorm tied to a cross to celebrate our engagement; having Ron Schipper as a coach; meeting lifelong friends with whom we share a common bond.
Hobbies/Activities: Travel, Special Olympics volunteer, assistant track coach at a local high school.
Employment: We are retired.
Life after Central: We have been blessed with three daughters who graduated from Central (Lisa Vander Wilt Shileny ’98, Jodi Vander Wilt Hogan ’01, Tricia Vander Wilt Fleagle ’05), three son-in-laws, and six grandchildren. We were honored when we were named Mr. & Mrs. Alumni in 1999.
