Your life since 1963: Attended Hamilton College (with Mavis...what a hoot!!). Married & moved to Rochester. Worked at a mortgage co. and secretary to a personnel director in a small manufacturing co. 1967 had a baby girl, 1968 had another baby girl, 1971 had a baby boy. That's All Folks!!! After the kids were all in school, went back to work at a local bridal shop doing accounting and payroll. Did that for 23 years. Jack retired and we moved back to Clear Lake in 1998 and neither of us has regretted it for a second. So many old friends still here or moving back....it's great!
Our oldest daughter, Kristen, is married and lives in Mpls. She has a 7 yr. old daughter, Abby, and is a correctional officer at the Shakopee Women's Prison. # 2 daughter, Barbara, is married and lives in Edina, MN. She has 2 children...a boy, Luke and a girl, Natalie.. She is a paralegal for the Henepin County Attorney in Mpls. Our Son, Joel, lives with his wife, Kelly and 2 children, a boy, Owen and a girl, Fiona in Cantwell Alaska. He is a carpenter. So.....how did I get 5 grandchildren so fast? For that matter, how did I get to 61 so fast?

Your life now:
Keeping busy all the time. My Mom is almost 90, so I look after her, but she needs little and is quite self-reliant. Belong to several organizations. Having a wonderful time back here at home.
