Patti's Story
Hi all - it's been along time and we've all moved on to bigger and better things. I'm divorced and moved to the Valley Forge PA area (west of Philadelphia) about 17 years ago. Phoenixville is close by and reminds me a lot of NK in our time. They have revitalized this town and brought it back to a great area to live and socialize. Scenes from the movie The Blob were filed at the infamous Colonial Theater in the heart of downtown Phoenixville. I moved here to take a new job here and have not looked back. I'm still with the same company and am now the practice lead for the consulting division of a tax software company.
I've traveled alot over the years - been to London, Vancouver, Alaska and a lot of states in between. I am hoping to go to Italy next. I've changed alot (in a good way) since our high school days, have learned alot and am thankful for all who call me friend and I them. I get back to NK once in a while to visit family but miss the old NK. Memories of another time are...Expand for more
wonderful to have and reflect on. Growing up there impacted who I am today. If you are ever traveling east and will be in the area, please let me know. I'd love to catch up with one and all.
I'm pretty active in dog rescue work and have a couple extra boarders at my house right now in addition to my own dogs. It's a great way to volunteer time and give something back in the process. I've continued my addiction to Camaros and now drive a bright red 2002 35th anniversary edition. Can't wait to see the new ones when they come out. I just may have to get me one of them!!
I went back to school and got my bachelors degree in 2004. I completed a 4 year degree in 4 years going to night school and working full time. One of the biggest accomplishments of my life.
All in all - Life is Good and I'm thankful for the good times and bad - each event helps me grow.
Looking forward to hearing from old classmates and reconnect with old friends. Stay in touch - it's good for the soul!
