Comments:

I left ELHS and started college in 1964. I was married December 26, 1964 on winter break. Howard and I moved to CT and Leslie Ann was born in 1967. Todd was born in 1970. I worked in banking managment and later technology management. We moved to Puerto Rico from CT in 1981, to New Hampshire in 1986, Vermont in 1996, and NY state in 2008 due to job transfers. We built our house in Arizona in 2002 as a future retirement home. At the age of 48, I decided to become a teacher which is where I started before changing to marketing. I finished my certification and received my Master's degree from the University of New Hampshire. I taught middle school social studies in three states: New Hampshire, Vermont, and Arizona. Howard is retired now. I'm retired, and get to be warm in the winter. We spend half the year in AZ and half the year in Agawam. We bought a condo in 2020 to be nearer family.
