    Greetings Class of '72,
    Well, what to say - I'm still single - I'd think I'd be quite a catch - I've still got all my own teeth and I'm fully vested in a civil service pension, but then I guess you've got to consider the whole package. I'm closing in on 35 years of public service with the state of South Dakota - I've been a deputy state's attorney, assistant attorney general, a tax collector and spent the past 23 years as general counsel for the South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources. I'm on a few state boards - I'm the environmental rep on the State Emergency Response Commission - the SD rep to our multi-state radioactive waste disposal commission - and I'm on the state board responsible for changing the names of geographic features in SD with offensive and culturally insensitive names (don't ask - I'm sure there's some karmic payback).

    Some people say I'm no choir boy, but for the record I do sing in the Oahe Presbyterian Church choir here Pierre - a natural baritone, but I usually end up singing tenor - my fellow choir members say I'm usually unrestrained by any particular part, anyway. I play the guitar, bass, mando and uke - probably almost as well as your average water color painter paints. I still turn a few laps in a swimming pool now and then - I'm the oldest part-time lifeguard at the Pierre YMCA (it's nothing like Baywatch). Most years I ride a few thousand miles on a motorbike - I hit the rally in Sturgis most years, to check out the bands, if nothing else - this year is Skynard at the Buffalo Chip.

    If you are wondering what I look like these days, you'll just have to come to Memorial Park and see. I'm really looking forward to getting together with all of you and catching up.

    Very Best Regards to All,
    Joe Nadenicek
