Heather Pettigrew Chernecki

Wasn't able to come to the reunion. Regrets

Mr Irwin was a kind generous teacher who taught those of us on the "second bus", typing, if we wanted to sit in after school -and he did this on his own time. Thank-you.

My family decided to move to Windsor the summer I was entering Gr 11 so there was never a good-bye to most of the peopleI grew up with. Several I been in the same class since Mrs Kennedy's kindergarten class.
I wish everyone well and for those who have passed, I hope that your lives were Blessed.

Heather "Annie" Pettigrew Chernecki

Barbara Gail Pettigrew
Dec 27-1951 - June 9/12 suddenly, unexpectedly /hole in my heart !

Health issues continue their downward spiral.....

2013 becoming an official SENIOR CITIZEN lol !!

- hopefully its nots obvious - it just cost a lot to have coloured.

in 2008 (for my 60th Birthday) I visited my daughter who teaches ESL in Thailand and we went elephant trekking and water rafting in the rainforest .......EEEEEK!!!!!!! I rode on the back of her motor bike - I don't know who was more terrified! For my 47th B-day I sold ny Dodge Acclaim and bought a new 1995 JEEP YJ/red/black even with a soft top, automatic & manual with four wheel drive. I still have it 16.5 yrs later in great shape. Being active and so many activities were a part of my early life and then things happenend and health issues have plagued my entire adult life. Am moving forward from a serious setback last fall, mainly diabetes complications. have a sense of humour sometimes, corny sense of humour most of the time. May 2012 - 1995 Jeep YJ traded for a 2012 Jeep Patriot...not nearly as much fun but more comfortable !!!!

try and relax and retain what I was learning

I went to Ryerson a few years ago and took some courses hoping to learn something and overcome the nervousness I always felt at school.
Pyschology , the Adaptive Mind was so hard I almost failed it and it was very interesting.
Then I took French of which I had only had 4 years of highschool, 40 yrs earlier. There were 19 students who started and the Prof said there will be a high drop out rate. I was the eldest and when we finished the term there were 9 of us left. I aced it. I speak to my cat in french and she totally understands me.........honest I was not able to master not being nervous. And unfortunately my cat Lena, just passed away..c'est la vie!
Think I may try and learn some Swedish as Grandaughter will be learning a new language....
