I married Mike Wallis in June 1974 and had a wonderful time growing up with him.
We moved to Palm Valley in the summer of 1978 and have been here ever since.
Daughter Chrissy was born in 1979 and son John in 1981.
I taught math at Terry Parker HS from 1974 till 2007, all subjects from Consumer Math to College Algebra, AP Calculus and AP Statistics.
became a runner in 1982, moved into marathons, then triathlons and did my first Ironman triathlon in 1991. Have done 32 ironmans since then, including 4 World Championships in Hawaii.
became a widow in 2001, losing Mike to the surf in Hawaii. May God rest his soul.
became a grandmother in 2002 (without becoming a mother-in-law), Leilani Michelle (given a Hawaiian name in honor of her grandfather).
have been volunteering, tutoring, training since retirement. involved with church ministry called Christ Renews His Parish.
my dad passed away in 2009 unexpectedly; mom still lives in the same house I grew up in.
I still visit my inlaws for holidays; my mother-in-law Valerie Wallis went home to the Lord in 2007, reuniting with her husband who passed in 1977.
