Dawn's Story

I went to Sherwood Elementary the second thru fifth grades. My Dad worked for the federal government, so we moved a lot and I grew up living in 7 states. After finishing the 5th grade in Ms. Fowinkle's class, we moved to 3 states and moved back to Memphis my junior year in high school. My Dad worked for the Corps of Engineers downtown. It was SO nostalgic seeing people in high school that I had gone to elementary school with! I made new friends at Messick but the ones I knew before were special. Some good friends went to Overton. I hope to see them at this year's 50th reunion! After Messick, I worked full-time for a year downtown at Welcome Wagon, then went to Mid-South Bible College in Memphis and graduated with a BA Degree in 1970. The summer of 1968, I married Pete Frye, the absolute best choice of my life! We both worked on the campus of our college for several years, then moved to Dallas for Pete to attend Dallas Theological Seminary. I worked full-time at Baylor Medical Center while Pete was in school. Then in 1980, we adopted our precious daughter at one month old. That was another excellent choice! Although we were both train...Expand for more
ed for Christian ministry, we always taught Sunday School, held Bible studies, worked in VBS, and Pete preached and taught on the side while we worked. Pete got into the area of computers, and I worked as a secretary/administrative assistant. I was able to stay at home for 10 years while raising our daughter, but went back to work part-time when we learned that she had some learning differences. The schools we put her in for several years were expensive. Pete and I worked for several cities, including the one where we live. I retired the end of 2013, and Pete retired the end of 2014. We have one granddaughter who is 16 and finishing her junior year in high school. She and our daughter live about 20 minutes from us. We are SO thankful to live close to them where we can be involved in their lives. We plan to attend this year's Messick reunion in August! My husband graduated from Messick in 1962. The last reunion we attended was my 10th, so we're looking forward to this one! I can't believe the friends in our class that we've lost too soon! We hope to see many former classmates at this year's reunion! God bless you all! Dawn Carmain Frye
