On our way to Texas, we stopped in at 
We went over to the new Engineering center and visited with some friends (disguised as old professors). Above you see us with Dr. Bill Graff, a crazy man with crazy ties (lots of them), but he loves the Lord and he loves his students. He has been a great encouragement over the years.
Dr. Paul Leiffer, now Chairman of the Department of Engineering, was one of our Electrical Engineering professors (as was Dr. Graff). We did some grading for both Dr. Graff and Dr. Leiffer while we were students at LeTourneau.
Ah, ye old Bell Tower.
I remember climbing thy scaffolding to the pinnacle just before ye were completed.
Oh' the good old days.
Now a university icon, the Bell Tower was added to the campus mall (the greenbelt corridor down which this picture was taken) in the early 1990's.
Dr. Graff fabulously presented each of our children with some crazy shaped balloons, which they loved. Here I sit with Syndi in the car as we left Longview, Texas, heart-shaped balloon beside.
It was good to visit the campus! It had been a few years. Aunt Lorrie was able to see a school she'd heard much about over the years. (Apparently it was much different than she had anticipated.)
Above is another picture of the new Belcher Center, where the Longview Symphony now holds its performances.
