David and Linda Ashbaugh (nee Smith) - Left Caledonia in 1968. David was employed as a police officer in Ontario for 8 years and engaged in the RCMP in 1976. Linda trained as a nurse. During that time they have lived in Orangeville, Waterford, Simcoe and Ottawa in Ontario; Dauphin and The Pas in Manitoba; and Courtenay, Terrace and Hope in British Columbia. At present, David is a Staff Sergeant in the RCMP and the Director of Ridgeology Consulting Services. In the RCMP he is the Forensic Identification Advisory NCO for the Pacific Region (Yukon and B.C.) in charge of training and quality control. Early in David’s career he specialized in Forensic Identification and has carried out research in that area for the last twenty five years. Over the years he published several papers on Friction Ridge Identification which has assisted to modernized the science. He is internationally recognized as a leading expert in his field an has received several awards and honours. Recently David published his research in a book entitled Quantitative-Qualitative Friction Ridge Analysis - An Introduction to Basic and Advanced Ridgeology. Also reported in the book is his related research into Palmar Flexion Crease Identification. This research established a new branch of personal identification science which has assisted to solved several major investigations over the last few years.
As a result, David travels a great deal to lecture, train or assist other police departments with complex or major cases. Last year he spent 7 weeks in England where he presented a paper at the Forensic Science Service Millennium Conference and spent the rest of the time training Scotland Yard experts. He also spent a few weeks in Philadelphia assisting the FBI defend a challenge to the friction ridge identification science. In 1994, David and Linda set up a private company, Ridgeology Consulting Services, to serve the needs of accredited police departments. This has increased David’s travel for training and consulting purposes. Linda has managed to maintain a continuous nursing career in spite of the several moves. David and Linda have two daughters and four grandchildren all living in B.C. The years have flown by! David continues to complain that he can’t spell, there aren’t enough hours in a day, and has no plans on what to do when he grows up. Linda works casual, gardens and enjoys her grandchildren.
Betty Schelter (Adams) -
Hello to everyone,
I must admit I did not get excited about the upcoming reunion until my brother Jim gave me the web site and I saw some names I recognized. I began to realize how much time has passed and how many memories there are. So to everyone who isn’t sure if they should attend I hope you do, especially the 57-62 grads. I left Caledonia in 1962 to train for a nurse in Kitchener, Ontario. At graduation time I met Butch and in 1967 we married and moved to Toronto. In 1972 we returned to Kitchener and began working together managing a 150 bed nursing home. Twenty-eight years later we are still managing the same long term care facility and are currently involved in the development of a new facility and a villlage for seniors.We have four children, two girls 25 and 29 and two boys 19 and 24. Our oldest daughter is married and has a year old boy. They live in Georgia. Our second daughter lives in Windsor and is the General Manager of East Side Marios. Our oldest son likes to travel and is presently planting trees in Northern Ontario. Our youngest is finishing high school and going to Sir Sanford Fleming College in September. Our leisure time involves spending time at a trailer in Grand Bend and visiting our children. I thank the educators from Caledonia High School for preparing me for the journey of life I have enjoyed.
Hi CHS Alumni
Sandra (San Dee) Doxtdator - currently living in Sweden for two years with my partner Bengt. Our daughter Elsa was born in Lund, Sweden Jan. 1999. We’ll be moving back to Canada sometime this summer to settle in Vancouver, B.C. I met Bengt who was then a foreign student from Sweden while attending UBC. I picked up a degree in Anthropology and Museum Studies and Bengt was finishing his Masters degree in Engineering. Just prior to moving to Sweden I was working with independent First Nations documentary filmmakers on the left coast. The eight PSA’s on BC Land Claims and subsequent documentary have been screened throughout Canada and the U.S. at Film Festivals and TV stations. Living in Europe has given me a new perspective and appreciation of my Canadian roots.
