Cathey's Story
Life
I'm married to a former classmate - Sammy Barbiero - since Oct. 1998. His first time - my second time. I have a step-daughter that will turn 23 the end of March 2009 - who graduated Cosmotology School in 2005, has worked at several different salons and is now working at Wells Fargo Bank. Sam is retired - his company Consolidated Freightways went bankrupt in 2002. He has medical issues with Rheumatoid Arthritis and Multiple Myeloma.... but doing very well in 2009!
I have previously lived in Colorado (5-1/2 yrs) and California (7 yrs) - returned to Utah in 1988.
I am presently employed at Cannon Associates, Inc. in Salt Lake - the company does property development ('The Crossings at Lake Creek' - Heber, UT is our most recent project - 360+ acres / 14 Phase Planned Community) and Real Estate - I am the Office Manager. I have held positions involving construction for the past 30 +/- years (Kaiser Alum., Star Roofing, Layton Constr., Smith-Layton Assoc., Howa Constr. Union Pointe Constr., Chung & Assoc., etc.). And right after the 20th Reunion I worked for our 'old' class president Jon Liddiard for about a year when he began his Brody Chemical business.
Sam and I purchased our house in 1999 located between 39th & 45th South, between 1500 E. & Highland Dr. We love the neighborhood and Sam enjoys working in the yard.
We had three cats - 2 female, 1 male (the male passed away March '06).

I have organized several GHS gal get togethers - as of Oct. 2006 we began getting together approx. every 6 months - 4/5/08 will be our most recent gathering -- please view the photo album noted in my profile for photos of the gals who have attended these latest gatherings.
I stay busy with work, home and my favorite hobbies - interior design, miniatures, photography and scrapbooking... I have a binder that contains photos from the 10-yr, 15yr, 20-yr, 30-yr, 35th, and wondering what our plans will be for the 40th Reunion. I am the Classmates.com Reunion Contact and the Administrator of our Class Website on ClassReport.org. Our 40th (can you believe it?) Reunion is tentatively planned for Heber, UT area / Jordanelle Reservoir.
As of June 2008 I am a business owner - I have started my own Home-Based business - "Every Day Memories, LLC" - I do scrapbooking for hire. Let me know if I can help you with your scrapbooking!
Getting geared up this year (2009) for our Class Reunion in 2010!
