Kandace's Story
Wow! How do you wrap up 30 years? After HS I went to undergraduate school in New Mexico - getting degrees in music performance and education; then onto graduate school at The University of Georgia - a masters and doctorate in performance.

In 2006 I moved to Orlando to take a position on the staff of Asbury Theological Seminary where I teach in our masters program and in our Latino/Latina Program as well.

I married in 1991 to a great guy named Neil Brooks and we had one child - Kailee Janelle - who is almost 14 now. Neil died in October 2002 and while we miss him terribly, we are grateful for the time we did have together - he was a great husband and fantastic dad!
I love living in Florida, and I really appreciate the way my life has taken shape! I am hoping to make it up for the reunion and so look forward to reconnecting.
