What is your favorite Mark Smith/Lasseter memory?

The time spent bs-ing during smokebreaks behind the school after lunch. Busrides after winning football games, and (after an appropriate time of guilt and remorse, for the coaches sake), the busrides after games we lost. Shouting, cheering, stomping, and generally acting like an idiot in the stands during basketball games.

Who were some of your favorite teachers?

Algebra (Name?)
French "

What did you do for fun during high school?

I was always working when it wasn't football season. Shoney's Riverside

Donnie Wayne's playfulness and self-deprecating sense of humor is one of the things I remember most about him. Regardless of the situation, you could always depend on Donnie Wayne to brighten up the moment. I can personally attest to his closeness to God by his witnessing to me on one of his last days of high school. He was gracious enough to give me a ride home and as I lived a considerable distance from school we were able to have a meaningful conversation during the drive. I lived in the Pendleton Homes in South Macon and each house had but a small stoop at the entry. Poor Donnie Wayne was so thrilled to "tell the good news" that he spent the next 3 hours sitting on that hard concrete stoop and witnessing to me. I don't know, maybe he had some special foresight in knowing I was a lost cause. Although his efforts were futile, I still remember that night and the earnestness in his voice and I continue to have a place in my heart for such a caring individual. I hope his family can find comfort in knowing how genuine he was even at such a young age.

While I was in high school Gloria Jean and her husband Buddy befriended me. Their kindness toward me is something I treasured throughout my life and I truly believe their influence helped me become the person I am today. I know her family takes comfort in knowing that Gloria Jean was such a caring and lovely person.
