Mary's Story
To some of my old classmates that I've recently been in contact with, I apologize for repeating what you may have already seen written by me. I find it is a lot easier to "copy & paste" rather than spending the time trying to recreate what's already been written when trying to sum up the last 35 years of my life. (Don't cha just love computers?) Soooooo- here ya go:
I moved from WI in '72 to IN for my last 2 yrs of high school & after HS I moved back up to Wisconsin - got married to a childhood boy-friend and we moved over 20 yrs ago, to North Carolina. I've been married 30+ yrs & had one child, Elizabeth, but she died in the late 90's while undergoing surgery to remove a tumor on her pituitary gland. It shook our world when she died.
I'm now in busin...Expand for more
ess for myself making stained glass. Every thing I make is a celebration of my daughters' life. (I've posted a few pictures of my work - here on Classmates - and have more on my FaceBook page.)
I like using scrap pieces of glass, shells, crystals and anything else (even broken beer bottles) that I'm able to incorporate into a panel and make it into something special. Kinda like my life - I've picked up the broken pieces & changed what once was, into what can be used and/or seen in a different way. A new way of living/seeing. I also make 3 dimensional items out of beveled glass.
That's it - my story telling is done - for now.........

PS Anyone looking for Tom or Jane Duke? Jane's still in WI and Tom is living in NC (not far from where I live).
