I enlisted in the Army for 3 years (87-90) serving all of my time in Germany. I met & married my husband while in Germany. I also got a chance to visit with Todd & Robin Stetson while he was stationed there.

After the Army, my husband & I moved to South Georgia (where Kris is from). I started working for Bridgestone/Firestone shortly after moving here & stayed w/the company for 18+ years, working in Transportation. During my time w/Bridgestone I was able to go back to college & did finally get my BA Degree in Business Mgt. The company moved to Jacksonville, FL & I did not want to move the family (2 teenage kids). So, now I am enjoying some time off! I can't wait to get back to work though. Started working for Bennett Motor Express in Oct '09 & recently got a job offer with US Marine Corp in Albany, GA as a Transportation Assistant & will start on Monday, 4/5/10. I'm very excited.

I think I enjoyed going to school to socialize with my friends more than getting a good education. I learned my lesson...college is not so easy if you never paid attention in school! Should have listened to Mr. Bradbury.

My most vivid memory would have to be when Lisa Chouteau pulled the chair out from under me when I was about to sit at the sewing machine & I fell flat on my butt...Ms. Belyea had a fit! We sure gave her a hard time, right Judy & Lisa?

Anyone remember Mrs. Law? She scared me!

One more memory is of elementary school & there was a mood ring that Scott Olsen & Keith Tingley would pass to different girls on a weekly basis. Those boys sure did get around.
