What happened after 1960?? After becoming a registered nurse, I first worked at the University Hospitals and Clinics in Iowa City. Over the years, I was involved in hospital management in Forest City, IA and in hospital risk management for the St. Paul Companies. During this time I earned a degree in business administration. I spent my last thirteen professional years managing provider contracting functions for Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Iowa.

What is up now? I retired in 1997. Jon and I now spend half the year in Clear Lake and the other half in Arizona.

What is the chance of you making a 45th reunion (Aug 5th & 6th) We plan to be there.

Special interests: Traveling, reading, knitting - mostly by machine for a class of Head Start program children and for a children's crisis center - and in the last two years, kayaking.

Spouse: My husband Jon is also retired after being a hospital administrator in Maquoketa, IA and Executive Vice President for the Iowa Hospital Association.

Kids: Our son Greg is in the information technology business in South Carolina and our daughter Jonna is a parish pastor in Central City, Iowa. We enjoy four grandchildren.
