Not really. I had my close friends, I was very shy and quiet. Went to school and worked after school. Not very exciting. Had and have a wonderful friendship with Sandi Dumitru. We have many fond memories of our escapades together and with other friends like Bill Beadle, etc.

Comments:

After I married I moved to the eastside of the city, and raised two sons (that now live in Denver.) No marriages or grandchildren, just a big dog named Marley. During that time I went to college and have had an interesting career in nursing. Work as an ER nurse and spent time up in Northern Michigan at our cottage when not working.
My sons live in Michigan now. My son Matthew and his girlfriend Lisa and dog Vega are happily together. My son Brent is married to Jennifer and have two beautiful daughters. My grand-daughters are Myra and Nadine and they have stolen my heart. I am now "Grammy."

Website Comments:

Years have past and so have some friends. Losing my husband suddenly was unexpected and life changing. Losing my younger brother Jody was a difficult time also. Keeping in contact with some of my other siblings is important to me. I moved recently from Ellsworth MI to Traverse City. Living close to son’s family and enjoy my grandchildren and other family that is near. Life is good and I keep busy with many projects.
