Comments:

I guess if you read my school story, my life continued and remains in Syracuse, NY. We have bought a home in Southport, NC. and are trying our "damnedest" to find enough $ to move there permanently. Currently I work for Hunt Real Estate, ERA in Syracuse and my husband, David works for a commercial real estate firm in Syracuse, also. I wore a few other "hats" before getting to this "stage". I've worked as a dental assistant, airline employee, hair stylist and now realtor. I guess alot went on from 1965 until now but who really cares, anyhow??? What's important is I've had a great life with David who I married in 1980 after taking a 10 year hiatus from marriage. We have two fabulous children and thoroughly enjoyed raising them in the 80's and 90's. We are looking forward to moving south after enduring too many cold, snowy, dark winters in the north. I also look forward to Class Reuion #45 and seeing you all there! : )
It is now 11/1/14 so time marches on! My husband and I moved from Syracuse to Southport, NC in July so we have become North Carolinians. We are so relieved to not see the plow go down the street and plow us in....and all you snow people know what that means. I am no longer working (YEAH!) but my husband is for a bit longer. I am looking forward to seeing everyone at the 50th this year! ??

School Story:

Not much school "happened" after I left Gowanda!! I went to Jamestown Community College for a Nursing Degree and was diverted by getting married to Pat Gordon in 1966.....Yikes!.....Only a child at the time....19 years old!! That was not "successful".....although I did get a degree....his! Yes....We moved on to Syracuse for Pat to go to SU. He finished his degree in 1970 and I stayed in Syracuse.

I'm sad to see Delene suffered with this terrible illness & left us.  I am sorry for this huge loss to her family.  Heaven has gained another angel!  No more pain for Delene!  Karen V
