Bio of Galen Darrough

 

Hello hermanos! My family is living in Greeley, Colorado, where I am Director of Choral Activities at the University of Northern Colorado, and have been so for 13 years. I taught public schools in southern CA for 8 years, trudged off to get a doctorate, and then took a big pay cut to teach in the college ranks! Like all things, it has highs and lows, but it remains my chosen profession, and there's never a day that I don't like to go to work. Patty and I (25 years this past December) have two kids, Rachel/18 and attending UNC and Chris/14, wrestling in his middle school at a bruising 90 lbs. We're also moving into another house (who needs a reasonable mortgage, anyway?) and our address after March 31 will be:

Galen and Patty Darrough        
648 54th Avenue
Greeley, CO 80634
907.353.5178

We hope to go to the reunion, and want all my former companions to forgive me for being either too pious (like when I was with Phil Wing) or too liberal (like when I was with Steve Christensen).  President Eagar is still the biggest man I've ever known, and always will be. Once while I was with him in the Intercontinental Hotel in Managua, he cried while sharing a story about how his Dad had to discipline him as a young boy on a ranch in Arizona. His father was probably tough as a boot as well.  We extend our love to you all.
