News Update
Well we are up to 39 Brothers who have answered the call to update their info, and I thank them for that. I also have had over 60 bad/no longer working email addresses. Please if you have email addresses for any other alumni please forward them to me. I am most interested in getting contact with more members.
As you can tell the website underwent a massive update and facelift (Didn't know a website so young would need one did you?). Please look around and feel free to send content my way to add to the site.
I will be posting here less and less and more in the Forums. Please join up and start making your own post.

18 Brothers found
Hello Brothers,
Check out the found brothers list. I have 18 listed and looking for more. I also had 2 send in info that I did not have an email list for. Please continue to pass the word and have the people contact me.
I am finally going to be able to start sending out more emails this week so hopefully that will generate more info.
I have been told that I could be here in Mexico as late as June of next year. I really need a vol. for the Social Director or at least plan a 50th anniversary party. (Please hold it in the 2nd half of the year so I have a chance to come........ )
The forums are now open. Please sign up and start your own post. How else am I going to get to know all my Brothers?
Have a wonderful Halloween and take care
Fraternally yours

Major new addition to website.
Well guys, I spent the weekend learning about bulletin board systems and I now have one up and running on the website. Check out the forum HERE or click on Forums on the left side. This is where the group can talk to the group. Please have fun. If you have any suggestions for additional forums please let me know I would be glad to add them.
I have not sent out any emails in a few days, but I am going to get back into sending out contact emails and changing lost brothers to found brothers. I am not happy with my current web site builder (cool pages). I am looking at a new product called Namo. If one day the look and feel drastically changes you know why. I also will be tweaking the Forums look and feel as I go along and learn more about it.
I am still looking for the social director. It is even more important that someone step forward in the Detroit/Flint area than before, because I just learned that I will be in Mexico until June. I need help in getting some social gatherings planned and done. You would be surprised by the number of people still living in the area, if we can get the word out.
So sign up, log on and start posting.
Fraternally Yours

Another good day
Today we found Dick Pasky HM147. He is famous for (or is it infamous???) starting the alumni wall in the basement. (I wonder if it is still there?) Also found was David Curry HM66. I have sent out about 60 emails so far with a failure rate of about 10% due to bad/old email addresses. Please if you can spread the news and have people contact us at the email address, on the left side of the web site at the bottom, it would be a tremendous help.
If my wife lets me, I will be adding more to the website tomorrow and sending out more emails. I am going to hold off publishing any email addresses on the website until I can find a way to prevent their harvest by the spammers. I have found a promising solution at Automatic. I am going to troll my web hosting company's forums to see what other people are doing. I want this web site to be a benefit and not cause any problems for anybody. If anyone has a suggestion please let me know.
Fraternally Yours

1st brother found!
Yesterday I started the process of contacting the brotherhood by email. For those whom I have an email address over the next several days I will be sending out individual emails that will let you know our plans and ask that you update your info. When I get your return I will move you from our Lost list to our Brotherhood Directory. Today, we have our first found member. Larry Parks HM47. Here is looking for many more.
If you don't want to wait for the email or in case I do not have your email you can send me an email with the following info.
1. Year inducted into the fraternity
2. Year graduated from General Motors Institute/GMI Engineering & Management Institute/Kettering University
3. Pin Number (Especially important for the Delta Chi Rho members as I do not have any of these)
4. Preferred regular mail Address for contact
5. Preferred email address for contact
6. Instant Message service and ID
7. Phone Number
8. Big Brother
9. Little Brother(s)
I would like to know the big and little brothers for the Brotherhood family tree that I will be building.
