Kareen's Story
I moved to Calif. right after graduation. I married Howard Miller. He was a graduate from the Timken class of 58. Before I go to far, you will notice I never changed my maiden name. I changed it when I married Al
We had 4 children. Sherrie, Howard Jr. Steven, and Diane. Later in 1974 Howard and I were divorced.
I then Married Al Grover in 1975. He Has a Masters Degree in Civil Eng. He has his own very successful consulting engineering business.
In 1982 we lost Sherrie to diabetes. She was 20 at the time. She had the disease since she was 6 years old, so she was dependent on insulin.
I at one time I sold Tupperware, and became a manager. Then I decided to go into Real Estate.
Then I went into Title work. When the market was hurting, in the late 70's I went to work in a sales office of a company that was in the after market of manufactureing replacement parts for fork lifts.

I graduated from cosmetology at Timken, I decided to get a Calif. license for Manicuring. This was because the new nail products were out. We didn't have acrilic nails in the 60's. I didn't work at it even through I had my license.
I decided to be home with the kids. They were all growing up and needed mom around.
Al has two children to a previous marriage. Glen & Sheryl
Al and I travel in our 40ft. motorhome. We traveled back to Canton in 2006 for my class reunion. We also go up into wine country, in Pasa Robles, and many other places. We enjoy Palmn Springs area and the beaches. We also enjoy going on cruises.
We also go to the desert, and ride our desert toys with our children and grandchildren.
We have 10 grandchildren.
Thats all for now,
Kareen
I will always remember when at Gibbs, We sang Christmas Carols every morning before class, around the Christmas Tree in the gym.
