Cathy's Story

Life I've lived in Phoenix since 1978. I have more than 25 years working for Qwest Communications (formerly Mountain Bell and USWest before Joe Nacchio almost ruined the company!) I mostly like it here but would really like to live in a smaller community someday. My daughter, Alyssa, just graduated High School this year and is pursuing education in the Crime Investigation field in some capacity. My son, William (Willie) is a special needs child who was born prematurely (1 lb. 12 oz.), but is a wonderful child in his own way. I am divorced, but am in a wonderful relationship with a dear man, whom I wish I could have met years ago. I stay very busy with my children and Henry and work, so I sometimes can't believe I am closing in on 50! I was pregnant with Willie at the 15 year reunion (the only one I have made it to), and it doesn't appear as if there will be a 30 year, so I guess we will have to wait 5 more years (and more gray hairs) to get together. I would love to hear how everyone is doing. Later. Well, it's been a few years and lots of changes. Daughter Alyssa 21 is getting married soon, going to college and working so stays busy. Son Willie has been in a group home for over a year now and is doing great. I got married on Jan. 1st, 2007 to a wonderful man who has been in my life for the last 8 years and so we finally made it official. I am still at Qwest Communications, now going on 29 years. So, life is good. Hope to hear of some kind of reunion in the future. It is now August 2012 - time flies! Still at the phone company. It's called CenturyLink now - 4th merger since I started almost 34 years ago. I also joined Facebook. My new married name is Hoyt. My daughter's reaction was "I can't believe u r on Facebook!" But it is fun to keep up with friends and family more often an...Expand for more
d see photos. Plus it is in real time so even if you only check occasionally, you can keep up to date. And the photos are nice to see too. Feel free to friend me anytime - it's been fun to connect with classmates! Time flies - August 2013 already. Have been very busy this past year finding a place we want to retire to eventually. So, we found a 1967 house in Prescott AZ in February, and had it gutted and renovated. At least we can can escape the heat of the Valley now until we end up there full-time. It's only about 2 hours from the Valley, so an easy getaway on the weekends and a good 18-25 degrees cooler in the summertime, which is the most important reason we bought it. We are so tired of the summers in the Valley. We will get 4 mild seasons up there. Still at CenturyLink, but hoping to retire within a couple years. We'll see. This economy has made it very hard to count on anything. But, we are all healthy so far, so glad for that. Still on Facebook, so say hello whenever....!! February 2020. Time flies. Retired 2 years...love it! Became a first time Grandma almost a year ago to a grandson, Sawyer. He's so much fun. Doing some big travel this summer with my husband...a cruise in Europe, and two more weeks on land after that. Scotland, with friends for twelve days in July. We stay busy for sure. 45 year reunion last year was fun. Looking forward to 50th...yikes we're getting old!! It's December 2021. The last two years have been crazy. We have had to abandon all our big travel to Europe. Just this week, found out can't go on our Hurtigruten Expedition cruise to Norway over New Years to see the Aurora Borealis because of Omicron. Foiled again! Will things ever feel normal again!? Other than that, things are good. Everyone is healthy. Loving the grands. Counting our blessings.
