Your life since 1964: Married in Dec 1963. Expecting in January - very "unplanned". I can still remember getting up at 4:00 AM so I could be sick before school so no one would know I was pregnant. Every morning Larry Ashland would ask "morning sickness yet?".

Our daughter Tiffiny enjoyed school and was out for every sport there was. She went to NIACC for her RN. Nursing took her to CA, Minneapolis, Des Moines, and Kansas City. She received her BSN from Graceland College. She is now in Phoenix where she is an injury prevention and trauma coordinator. She is also a Major in the Air National Guard.

Our son, Will, wasn't as interested in the education part of school, but he enjoyed sports and after school fun.  He enlisted in the Navy and was in Boot Camp right after graduation. He was aboard the first ship into the Gulf when Kuwait was invaded; very tense time. He met his wife in Hong Kong; she was from Calcutta. He is now a plant supervisor in Kansas City.

Your life now: Bill and I still work; we both enjoy our jobs but I'm looking forward to retirement. We enjoy all six grandchildren --Tiffiny's Brenna (soph in college), Lacy (senior in HS), Alex (Jr High) and Aaron (6th ). Will's Taylor(5th) and Lauren (1st). Bill and I are learning to appreciate the empty nest. We feel we have been very blessed. May God bless all of you.

Memories of Clear Lake:  Pumpkin stealing-even one hooked to electricity (scared my accomplice , who will remain anonymous). Roller skating and sneaking off to MC instead. Being first one in the lake one year (you want to talk cold!!!) Once was enough!! Meeting Bill at the Youth Center--first impression wasn't that great, but who knew-- 45 years and counting !!!!
