Pat Diggles

Left Shrine in 1963 and began college at John Carroll University in Cleveland, Ohio. Transferred to Eastern Michigan University in 1966, and was drafted before graduating in 1969. Returned to Royal Oak after a year in Vietnam.
Completed my Marketing Degree at Eastern Michigan University. Worked for Chuck Muer's restaurant group for ten years, and then traveled around the country running medium size restaurant companies in Florida, New York and Colorado. Opened a marketing company in Colorado in 1995 and sold it in 2010. Currently doing some marketing consulting, golf and building Frank Lloyd Wright style furniture and stained glass. My wife Cynthia and I have been gifted with a wonderful life.

I must admit that I really enjoyed my Shrine High School experience. It was a lot simpler, and less complicated than the high school experiences my kids have gone through. I am hard pressed to single out one significant story. I can say that throughout my high school career when someone asked me where I went to high school I was proud to say Shrine!
