“As Time Goes By” (The Mantovani Orchestra)
Listen to “Looking Ahead”
This was the third and final breakup of Julie and Allen. In just days, Julie Scott would meet Howard Davidson in advanced music theory class. He was an organ major who transferred to La Paloma College from Arizona State.
A month later, on the weekend of her 18th birthday, Julie would drive to a La Paloma weekend Bible conference in the mountains because she knew Howard would be there to play the piano. They inevitably fell in love and got into trouble a lot for PDA on campus. So they learned how to get off campus as much as possible.
After a year of dating, Julie and Howard got engaged; and the year after that they married and lived off campus while Julie finished her senior year, graduating from La Paloma College in 1967. Howard graduated the following year—1968—the first year that La Paloma changed from College to University status.
Sandra and Bob got married two months before Julie and Howard’s wedding in 1966. Julie was Sandra’s maid of honor, and Sandra was Julie’s matron of honor. Rafael Gonzales and his sister Luisa sang at Julie and Howard’s fairytale wedding.
Allen met and married Shirley, and they went off to create their own story.
