Life
School
I attended Goodrich elementary, then stayed on when it became Goodrich Jr. High. Went to Garfield H.S., graduating in 1960. Attended Akron U for a couple of years then moved to Ann Arbor, MI. Got an Associate's Degree from Detroit College of Business while working at Henry Ford Hospital.
My Spouse
I was introduced to my future husband (Tom Colson, Coventry H.S., 1957) by my very oldest and best friend, Judy Dubich, at Red's Bar in Akron, Ohio in December, 1965.

My Kids
A daughter,Karen, born in 1970, single and now living inClearwater, FL after many years in Long Beach, CA. She's a terrific child and has become a very nice person in every way. Even though born & raised in Michigan, she too has an "Ohio connection" as she attended Hiram College for a couple of years. She was an exchange student near Zurich, Switzerland for a year after high school.
We also had an Italian exchange student, Manuel Rosini, for a year while in Grosse Pointe whom we tend to think of as our kid too. He's now working for The World Bank and he's been posted in Rome, London and currently in Paris with his girlfriend and their two children, Lorenzo and Carlotta. He returned from Italy to get his master's from Georgetown in International Relations.
