Reunion Article in Salt Lake Deseret News!

Yes, people change, and it's magical

By Jerry Earl Johnston , Deseret News
Published: Wednesday, Aug. 8 2012 5:00 a.m. MDT

It was time for our high school class reunion — 45 years since Diploma Day —
and the word on the street was Boozy would be there.

Boozy — Jerry Busenbark. Wasn't he the kid who once painted himself blue?
He wasn't the class clown — more like the class character.

When a questionnaire went out asking the most memorable moment in high school,
dozens of alums wrote, "The day Boozy blew a toilet off the wall with a cherry bomb."

Now, 45 years later, most people didn't know what to expect.

Would he be tattooed top to bottom?

Would he remember our names?

Would he remember his own?

My wife and I sat at Boozy's table. As I took my seat, I thought I caught a whiff of gunpowder.

But if anyone hoped Boozy would make a scene, they were in for a letdown.

This was not the Boozy we once knew.

This Boozy had served as a counselor in a Mormon mission presidency in Russia.

He had served with distinction in the Armed Forces.

He had penned two books.

Instead of being a "character," this Boozy had character.

We were blown away, even more than we were by his cherry bomb stunt.

I left knowing I'd vote for him if he ever ran for the Senate.

Boozy was a transformed soul.

Because I've been through a few transformations myself, I have a special affection for
people who've turned their lives around.

There's a guy in Box Elder County who went to prison as a high school kid for setting fire to an ROTC building during the Vietnam War.

Some folks tell me today he is the best stake president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints they've ever had.

I've seen gruff people become teddy bears, and I've seen teddy bears turn into charismatic leaders.
In the Bible, men of God turn walking sticks into snakes and turn water into wine.

But those miracles, in my mind, pale when compared to the transformations I see in the men and women around me.
Such changes are magical — like watching someone on stage turn handkerchiefs into doves.

Boozy is just the latest — and one of the greatest — examples.

As we parted ways at the reunion, he and I pledged to stay in touch.
Nothing he could do at this point would surprise me.

For the New Boozy, I don't believe even the sky is the limit.

His email message:
Just a short note to all of you in the class, whether you are going to the reunion or just live in the Brigham area - It will be a great privilege for me to treat each of you a ride in my plane over your home in Brigham or Honeyville or Willard or wherever at no cost to you. I love flying her and I want to share this experience with any of you who wish to do the same. I will even let you take the controls if you wish and dare to take the plunge. I have had some people in the past say they don't want to fly in a plane that is open cockpit, as if to say that they feel they are going to fall out without a top over them. There is no comparison to the exhiliration you get in an open cockpit plane. And it is as safe as any other standard closed cockpit plane - perhaps more so.
The announcement states I will provide rides by appointment. I prefer to know when to be at the airport for the rides but for those of you who prefer to see others fly before you take the intrepid step to do the same, I will commit to being at the Brigham airport located 3 miles northwest of Brigham on the road to Tremonton on the 27th and 28th by 7:30 a.m. Early morning flights are always easier to handle when the heat is less and the air is calm so I will be there from 7:30 until noon those 2 days and at other times as required for those who make prior arrangements with me as requested in the reunion announcement.
Thanks and hope to see you there,
Mike Braegger

Good morning;
Hope all is well with BEHS class of 67. I recently came across the attached page from the Standard Examiner regarding the graduation of the class of 67. The full-page clip says a lot about 1967 and I am sure each of my fellow graduates will see this page differently. I admittedly had a good chuckle as I fondly remembered class and life since.
I hope you enjoy and find it useful.
