Jean's Story

After 20 years in Princeton, NJ, Bob and I moved to Aiken, South Carolina in 1999 and bought ten acres in the country. We travel quite a bit to Florida where our daughter, Robin, and our grandson, Brendan, live. Our son, Adam, still lives in New Jersey since he was just beginning his career years when we moved. We have been driving the 600+ miles to Pittsburgh quite a bit the last few years. Bob's daughter, Tina, still lives there and both my parents were dealing with illness. We have now lost both of them so except for Tina and my sister, Diane, we don't have as much to draw us north. We love Aiken. It is a beautiful little town and even though we are not horse people, we are surrounded by horse farms, even in town. The weather is beautiful. Our average daily temperature in winter is 50 degrees.

d a dream of Bob's to travel to South American and see Iguacu Falls and Christ the Redeemer in Brazil. We spent 17 days in Chile, Argentina and Brazil with an amazing bunch of people. Don't know where we'll head next but I'm sure it will be just as much fun. Now we are spending the summer making updates on our home. Workplace Ater school I began working for an appraisal firm in Pgh. That's where I met Bob. During the '70s I spent my time being a housewife and mother to Robin and Adam. After our move to NJ in 1979, I began to work part time for the same appraisal firm as Bob. During the '90s I changed to banking and worked for two different banks until 1999 when I "retired" to move south. Now I'm working at being a landowner. Now I'm building muscles instead of grey matter. Sadly, in January 2021, Bob succumbed to the Parkinson's disease that has plagued him for many years. I am now try to learn how to live life as a single after being a couple for over 50 years.
