Carolyn's Story
Life
I went to Parsons College in Fairfied Iowa after attending 2 years at U.T. I joined the AOPi Sorority
and majored in Education and Humanities/English. I
Graduated Colledge in 64. Taught 5th and 6th grade in Carpentersville Il for 9 years.
Married Donald Buck in 67 and we were divorced in
76.
I moved to Houston from Illinois to help my father.
Ran Apartment Complexes, Remodeled homes, apartments, and motels.
Advertising Director for Triangle Engineering Co. for 3 years and then became Sales assistance, then
to Sales V. P.
Started Triangle Metal & Mfg. in 1982.We were on the upswing when the economy came to a halt. We
adjusted the business and added products. We then ventured into the water jet cutting business.
...Expand for more
We did water jet cutting insourcing for several years.
I have been very fortunate.
I also have a Stain Glass Business I started in 76
and an antique business that lasted about 4 yrs.
I retired in 2004 to return to Austin to take care of
my mother. I closed Triangle the next year and
now live full time with my mother.
I have purchased some rent houses and duplexes
here in Austin as I plan on staying here for a while.
I love remodeling houses and I am in the mist of
doing that now.
I would love to hear from past friends and current friends. I have not lived in Austin since 1961 and it
sure has changed. I miss things like The Pig Stand and those spudnuts they used to sell on the Drag.Hummmm Food has always been my downfall!
