Steve P.and Jeff M. both made it through our Sr year. They both made a living
bouncing between scopro and borderline grades each semester. Our rooms were
across the hall from each other, first floor next to the band hall.
We went deer hunting on Maddox’s land around Huntsville just prior to flying
out to the Sun Bowl on New Years Eve on SW Airlines. Zips and fish on one plane
with PH’s and Butts on the other. Beat Florida that year.
Both guys talked about enlisting during the hunting trip but not sure what came
of that if anything. One of them, I think Maddox, upon returning after the game
packed his stuff and bugged out before the spring semester started. The other
jumped ship during spring break. But they did march each year with their
summers at Blinn.

I found Steve Pipkin a few years ago after being surprised to find his mom in
an assisted living facility in New Braunfels where my mother in law was then
staying. I had a nice visit with his mom, who I knew from when Steve lived
in Corpus Christi, and then called Steve to reconnect. He lives in
Cleveland, TX, somewhere near Houston. He and his wife have a horse rescue
facility. I thought he came back and marched with us in other years beyond
our first year, but he didn’t graduate. He majored in Animal Science, or
something like that. I encouraged him to join our then yahoo group, but for
whatever reason he chose not to. He’s easy to find on Facebook.
