Jean Childress's Story
Hello to the class of 1962. I knew many of you at Central Jr. High, but left the EPOCH class of 62 my freshman year. Went to Kentucky and came back to graduate in the class of 1962 at Washington Community High School in Washington, Il. I still feel an allegiance with EPOCH and many of my friends. And friends, you know who you are!
After high school, I married a sailor and left Illinois for Virginia, Texas, and Washington State. My husband, Tom, retired from the Navy at NAS Whidbey Island, Washington and we began a civilian life. He taught electronics at a small college on Whidbey Island and I worked at an executive...Expand for more
secretary to the medical staff at the hospital on Whidbey. We raised three children, lived for a time on a sailboat, retired again and bought a motorhome in 1994 and left for 9 years on the road seeking the sunshine every day. I lost Tom in 2003 after a long bout with lung cancer, and I now live in Yuma, Arizona for the desert winter and visit my son and daughter in Washington State for the hottest part of the Yuma summer.
I would enjoy hearing from any of you who want to share their stories with me. Hope to be able to return to East Peoria for the 50th year reunion next August.
Love to all
