Meridith Galstad

Since graduating from high school and Mount Senario College, which is no longer in operation, I moved around a bit. While living in Arcadia and working at ORC Industries as a Case Manager, I met Ray. After being laid-off from ORC, I worked at a few places in Winona and at a group home in Cochrane. After being let go from my last job in December 2007, I purchased my very first computer and decided to go back to school. I took classes on line from Rasmussen College and last week completed my Paralegal Certificate program. Now the job hunt begins!

I remember in second grade and getting on the bus one day and Peter Johnson was substituting for our regular bus driver. He had not seen me get on the bus and I ended up sitting way in the back with some of the high schoolers. Being that he hadn't seen me get on the bus, Peter drove right passed the house! I asked the high schooler, who looked like a giant, to tell the driver he passed my house. He hollered, I stood up crying, and said he'd passed my house. Peter turned around in Hestiken's driveway, across the road from the Rod and Gun Club, drove back to my house and drove the bus all the way up the driveway! The other kids thought it was pretty neat the we had a goat for a pet!
