Linda's Story
Hi everyone,
I guess I have been pretty lucky. I have been one of the few that followed my dreams and made a living at it. My love of music took me to some classes at Millikin Universary here in Decatur, after which I opened my own music store. I have been doing that since 1963. I love to travel and it has made it possible to travel to trade shows in California a lot and some in quite a few other states. In 2005 I took a trip to China with some music friends and that was very interesting also.
In the midst of my music career, I found time to have 2 kids and 6 grandkids. They all live in or near Decatur so I have been lucky enough to see the grandkids grow. One is grown and the otheres are still in school. They range from 4 to 21.
As I mentioned before I love to travel, and have fell in love with cruises. I have taken one a year for the last 3 years. I also spend part of the cold mont...Expand for more
hs in Florida.
While in Decatur, I love to go to classic car cruises and shows. I have a bright red '64 Ford Galaxie (and a few others) That is fun and I love to get the looks from people when they see me in the old cars. They are so much fun.
I would love to hear from some of my classmates that I have lost touch with. I have been contacted by a few this year that I had lost contact with and see some of the ones that live around here, once in a while. As you know, the class of '61 will have our 50th anniversary in two years. Hopefully we will be able to put together a class reunion. Please contact me if you are interested in coming or helping with organizing one.
Guess What? the two years have pasted and a date has been set for our reunion.
Class of 61. 50th anniv. reunion. October 14 and 15, 2011. Please contact me if you don't get an email telling you all about it.
