Cheryl Snyder-Mark:  

High School!! Yes, I definitely had a good time, maybe not making the right choices, but still had a lot of fun. By the time I was in the middle of my junior year, I saw the error in my ways and decided if I wanted to graduate with everyone else I had better settle down a bit. Well, I did graduate in 1968, barely, and was thrilled that I would never have to go back. The only downside to graduation was friends going their separate ways, and over the years losing touch. The good thing is we have reunions that bring us back together(Thanks Dave!)to enjoy each others company for a little while again.

I have now been married for 35 years. We have two daughters Breanna and Megan. Both girls are married and live here in Colorado Springs. I have 6 grandchildren, Andy 14, and a set of precious twin granddaughters Aurora and Alexa that are almost 5 years old. Breanna, my oldest daughter also has a second set of twins Aidan and Alexander. The boys are now 3 and will be 4 in June. They are always busy and into everything. My yo...Expand for more
