Muskegon Alum Eyes Retirement
“I took a semester off, lost my deferment and got drafted,” he says. He spent two years in the military, including 101⁄2 months in Vietnam.
Before going overseas, Hoekema got married. On his return, he and his wife Marilynn moved near her family in Palm Beach, Fla., where he tried to resume his graphic arts studies. The program there was not what he expected. So they returned to Michigan, where he finished his second year at Muskegon Community College.
