After graduating, I attended a business school in Salem. Before the end of the year, Marvin and I married and I started working for the State. My 'working away from home' ended early in the Summer of '57 when we had a daughter, and a year later a son. Six years later we had another daughter. For several years, Marvin was a part time taxidermist in South Salem where we still live - then full time for over 20 years with the shop next to our home.

These 45 years have been very busy and hectic years - still are, even being retired! We have Christmas trees, nursery stock, a large garden and yard to 'play around' with, and hunting and fishing for Marvin.

We are blessed with 9 grandchildren ranging in age from 4 to 22. However, our 2 daughters and 6 of the grandchildren live in Hawaii, and we don't get to see them enough! (But we have plans to attend a grand-daughter's graduation on Maui in June.) The other kids live here in Salem.

We are hoping to see the most classmates ever at our 45th reunion.
