Don Stultz--Veteran Profile

By

**Thank you to our veteran's who were gracious enough to be interviewed during our annual veteran's breakfast.  We appreciate your service!

Don Stultz is an Army veteran who was drafted into service and was stationed at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas.  He doesn’t remember any of his instructors, but he thought the food was fairly okay.  To help pass the time, he and his friends spent time listening to accordion music, and playing cards.  Sometimes he even went into Kansas City to enjoy the town.  After leaving the Army, he went to work for Duquesne Light, and he was not supported by the G.I. Bill.  He thought that some of the benefits of being in the Army were meeting new people and making lifelong friends from all over the country.  He just attended his 54 year reunion.

Jerome Koller, History Teacher "My father has always been my hero. At age 16, I was at a crossroad in my swimming career. He stated something to me during that time that has always stuck with me. He said, “You have the talent and ability to do great things. But talent and ability mean nothing if you choose not to use your gifts you've been given. You'll have the rest of your life to be mediocre. Stop being afraid of great news and give yourself a chance to see what you can truly be.” I took those words to heart and would be unafraid over the rest of my athletic career. My father had taught me a lot over the course of my life. But this small conversation instilled in me an important virtue, one that I try to encourage with my own children today."
