Sharon's Story
Life
Hi Classmates,
Since leaving high school I've raised two children and 3/4's of someone elses.
I worked in the Seminole County School System for 15 years and then sub. for 5 years. Retired in 1991 due to health.
My husband Dennis retired from the John F. Kennedy space center Fire Dept. after 34 1/2 years. One of the first 39 hired there in 1964.
We sold our home and belongings and bought a travel trailer(5th Wheel) and have been on the road ever since. We just finished seeing the last of the lower 48. We started on 9/09/99. We're going to build a home and go 6 and 6 from now on. I guess that Old Age thing is hitting home.
Dennis and I have been blessed with 3 and 1/2 grandchildren. Our daughter Pamela has a son ,Kerston that is 17. She lives in Deltona.
Our son Steven has a daughter 18 and a son 9. He and his family live in Gauntanamo Bay,Cuba.
Our bonus Son Timothy Love has a daughter year old and is the father to our grandson Kerston by his first marriage to our daughter.He will be making us grandparents again in July(a little boy).
Life has been very good to us and we have really enjoyed it. I hope all my classmate have been blessed with a wonderful life also.
Our 50th class reunion is coming up and I hope someone picks up the ball to do something about it. I failed to pulled together the 45th because of things in my live I have no controll over. I would be happy to help but can not do the big work it takes to put in place.Bobby Barbour has the names and address and John Lake said he would help also. Barbara Moses is up to it also. Good workers and they can do a very good job but they need help so step up to the plate and get in touch with them. Please feel free to contact me about help...Expand for more
ing. WE NEED TO DO THE 50 REUNION AS WE HAVE LOST SO MANY AND WE WILL LOSE A LOT MORE BEFORE WE GET TOGETHER AGAIN.
Hope to see you soon.

My thanks to Bobby Bourbar for building me such a nice home. He did a fine job. He gets the classmate of the year reward.

It's been along time since I updated this thing so I'll try to do the best I can. Like everyone else I've got older and a lot slower. Here's goes nothing.
We move back to Geneva in 05 and as I said Bobby did our nice house for us.
Going around the country in a travel trailer is a great way to spend years of your life ,but to come home again is an uplifting experience, as the old saying goes there is no place home.
Coming back to Sanford was so awesome. Coming around the lake and seeing Sanford standing along the shores of Lake Monroe brought tears to my eyes. To tell the truth I cried.
We had been over 6 years going every where. It was great but as the old saying goes
"Be it ever so humble ,there's no place like HOME!!!!
I hope this finds all of our class mates doing well and enjoying life. It's a shame that we do not have a list of those who have passed on. Sure wish we could have another REUNION , but that may never happen again. so sad!
Well that's my crazy update. Maybe others will update yours too, so we can read how your life has been. Oh, one more thing I'm a Great Grandmother also like some of you are, Aren't they fun!!!!!!!!!!
