Kim's Story
As most of you know, I married Glenn Lavenburg (Lake High School Class of '87) in May 1994 after almost 9 years of dating. Tragically, Glenn died due to injuries he sustained from a traffic accident on June 8, 1997. During this difficult time, I managed to finish my doctorate degree & received a PhD in Physiology from Kent State in December 1998.
I needed to get away after Glenn's death, so I accepted a postdoctoral position at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston and did research in cancer genetics. There, I met my husband, Christophe, a 3rd year General Surgery Resident. We married in September 2002 and had our daughter, Karine, in January 2004. We moved to Philadelphia, PA in June of th...Expand for more
at year, where Christophe began a 2 year fellowship in Surgical Oncology (Cancer Surgery). While in Philly, our son, André, was born in December 2005.
After Christophe finished his fellowship, we decided to go back to SC, but to Spartanburg, a city about 3 hours NW of Charleston. We enjoy the mild winters & most likely will make this our home, despite having no family nearby.
As for me, I am currently a stay-at-home mom, but plan on applying for a faculty position at one of the private universities once André is in school full time.
I am coming home in June for the reunion & am excited to see all of you. I can't believe it has been 20 years! I hope all of you are well and would love to hear from you!
