Diane's Story
My cinnectuion to South...
I didn't go to South but lived in German Village and went to Barrett Jr. High. Met and hung-out with a lot of fun people, and want to catch up with everyone. Many of you graduated from South. Have some questions as to where some of these people are at.
Best memories of the Village: Octoberfest where I danced all day and all night with everyone, even Grandma's and Grandpa's. And the food...
It's been a long time but the memories are still fresh. Current past below...
Let's see I owned and operated two businesses with X-Husband partners. The first one: a Sign Painting business started with my 1st husband literally on the Streets of San Francisco, because we wanted to go to Japan. Second biz was with 2nd hubby in Texas - building houses during the boomette.
I've travelled the world. First hubby and I would get the big pay check from painting signs, then we got backpacks and went directly to the airport. We travelled. Did this about three times. Started in Japan, went to Thailand, Hong Kong, Greece, Europe: Italy, Spain, Swiss, France, Germany, Netherlands, etc. True Gypsy style.
A brief bio. Owned and Operated a sign painting business with First husband in LA. Adopted two beautiful children 3 & 5, Mike and Desi - from my sister. They were neice and nephew who turned into Son and Daughter. My sister is fine now, but had some serious health issues. We believe family support and love pulled her through. Raised these children and loved them as my own through High School and they turned out beautiful and strong.

ivorce moved to San Fran Bay area and worked in exiciting world of Computers, Software, and CG graphics. The Company that helped create the first Star Wars series. Worked in the companies that actually started and invented email, internet, and pioneered a lot of new technology, very exciting place to be in a revolutionary time.I got to work along side the most brilliant people in the world, in the biggest corporations.
Met husband #2, in Seattle and we setted down in Texas and started the House Building business you will see pics of. (We were both sick of the Corporate world went self employed)
Got divorced in June 2009 - came back to California. Live in South Lake Tahoe Now - which has been my back yard for over 20 years. Thinking of perhaps having a second home in Ohio to be near extended family and friends.
After a life of running businesses, raising kids, travelling, and exhausting myself, I may be ready to relax and unwind a bit. Want to connect with the Ohio clan and friends from my childhood there. Something about Ohio, just doesn't let you go...
That's it. Write me if you remember me and have good stories. I am having a lot of fun contacting so many people. The memories have me rolling on the floor. It's starting to be obsessive at this point. In a good way.
I am sooooo happy to see many friends who are healthy with healthy families. We are all TRULY blessed. I do not take it for granted for one second. Take Care of yourselves. Life is the most precious gift.
Let's get together for some of the bashes and keep those stories coming lol!!
