Jennifer Perkins's Story
I am a retired Pediatric Physical Therapist and enjoy my family on a full time basis. My husband is an Oral and Maxillofacial surgeon, who I met at the Medical College of Virginia (that was the name at the time). We have two children, a daughter, Jesse, who took after her dad and is a dentist, and a son, Will, who is finishing his last year in school for Chiropractic medicine.

I almost missed the Saturday night get together as I did not get the notice that the pavilion burned to the ground at Deer Run. I was only an hour late but managed to find our group. It was wonderful to see my classmates and it felt as though we had not left the familiarity of the halls of Newport News High. I hope more come for the 50th...it is well worth the trip. Jennifer
