Karen's Story

So here is my profile: Born in Ohio, west side of Cleveland on Lake Erie. Went to Beach Elementary School and moved from Rocky River, O. to Los Altos, CA in 7th grade. Went to Blach Jr. High and Awalt High School in Mtn. View, CA 1959 to 1965 (& continue to work on our class reunions). Graduated from UCSB, BA-Home Economics in 1969, MA - Family Economics and Consumer Behavior from San Jose State in 1973. Got my Interior Design certification in 1996 from Canada College and immediately started working at Paul's Draperies in Sunnyvale, CA, specializing in window treatments and reupholstering. I am now retired! Met & married my wonderful husband, Dominik, a native of Croatia, after a 6 month courtship, in 1973. We have two great sons, Anton-43 and Erik 40. Erik married his Cal Poly college sweetheart, Dana, in May 2009. They live in Berkeley hills. Anton married Ayelet, who grew up in Portola Valley and Woodside, in August 2012. They live near us in Los Altos. We still live up the street from Awalt High! We have 4 grandchildren (3 boys: L...Expand for more
uka (6), Davor (6), Teo (3), and 1 girl, Zara (4). We are crazy about our grandchildren! In 2005 we had a opportunity to buy a lot on a hill overlooking the Adriatic Sea in Bacina, Croatia, my husband's birthplace. We bought it and immediately started building a stone house there. The house was completed the summer of 2008. We love going there every summer with our family. We are a little over an hour north of Dubrovnik and south of Split. Living there is a much slower pace, but Mountain View is still home. We spend our summer's there and our kids join us. Our 50th Awalt Reunion was so much fun, especially seeing classmates attending for the first time, I loved seeing everyone there and now we are already planning for our 55th on September 26, 2020 at 5 pm at Michael’s Restaurant at Shoreline in Mountain View, CA. Please keep in touch with Julie (Vasquez) Cummings and me, and give us your current emails and addresses and other information for our classmates directory that we always give attendees! Wishing all of you health and happiness!

It is time to republish this.  Think what you mean when you say Pro-Life.
Are you to going to sponsor programs for the helping those who need it or are otherwise less fortunate than you?  Really think it….
