Janice's Story
Life
After graduating from SLHS I spent 4 years at Eastern Michigan University where I earned a bachelors degree in nursing. I married my high school sweetheart, Jeff Martin, after dating 8 years! We have been happily married for 25 years now. I worked 6 years at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital before starting a family. I decided to stay home until 2001 and now work part time as a nurse. Jeff and I have three daughters. Jennifer is in her third year at CMU, Kim is a freshman at MSU and Katie is a Senior in high school. We live in Canton, MI with our girls and a yellow labrador named Lucky. I love to bowl, golf and play bunco with a great group of friends that I have.
School
I attended SLHS from 1972 to 1976. The teachers I still remember include Mr. Seybold (math) and Mr. Curtis (physics). They were the the teachers who made me work the hardest. Of course the most fun was band! Mr. Kachelko (sp?) was our director at that time. We had t...Expand for more
he most fun in marching band and pep band. Debbi (Fike) Kruis and I had a blast!
College
I started EMU in the fall of 76. I graduated in December 1981 with a bachelors degree in nursing. I met my friend Cheryl (Edwards) Horgan as a freshman and we remain best friends today. Cheryl and I both graduated from the nursing program and worked at St. Joes in Ypsilanti. I also stay in touch with another classmate, Janet (Oliver) Brannen who now lives near Toronto. Cheryl and I now work together in Plymouth.
Workplace
I began working at St. Joseph Mercy hospital right out of college in 1981. I worked there until 1987 when I had my first child. I took a break to raise my kids and returned to nursing recently. I work part time in a small nursing home in Plymouth, MI. I get to make my own schedule, pretty much working when I want as long as the job gets done. I also work with friends from school and my early days at St. Joes. It's a great job!
