Subject:"Now
and Then" Pics
Date: Thu, 4 Apr 2002 15:06:38 -0800 (PST)
From: Ronald Autrey
Even
though I did not actually graduate at WPHS, I feel a part of
the class. I attended Glenridge, and my Sophmore and 1st semester
of my Junior year at WPHS, of which I have many fond memories.
Then my family moved to Asheville, NC where I completed high
school and graduated at Lee Edwards in '61.
I worked with my Dad in the tire
business until his death in 1971, at which time I took over
the business. In 1981 we moved back to Winter Springs after
selling our store. I have had a tire business in Orlando for
the last 20 years. I'm now in "semi-retirement" with
my son running the daily routines.
I've been married for 37 years
to my precious wife Toni. We have one daughter and two sons,
who have blessed us with 6 grandchildren. Toni and I are looking
forward to enjoying our retirement, living part time here and
retreating to the mountains in the summer months.
I appreciate Bill Ronay contacting
me and informing me about the WPHS Class of "61 Site. I
have enjoyed reading the "Then and Now" section, and
being updated on where everyone is and what they are up to now.
My Best To All, Ron Autrey |

has a special interest in Bob. Born March 4th, this brown-haired,
blue-eyed senior girl enjoys swimming, skiing, drive-ins, and

Her philosophy of life is to "get everything you can out
of life because you only live once." Future consists of
