Sue's Story

College I graduated from Elmira College in 1990. Then worked a year in Speech in NY (for Steuben/Alleghany BOCES) while Craig (Gordon) was still at EC (Soccer Asst. Coach). Went to England in '91 with him for a while then to Tampa (brothers there). We got married in '92 and have remained in Tampa. I worked for a while down here - not in Speech though. Got a temp job at an engineering firm that became an 8 year gig. I quit working midway through my third pregnancy. Now have 4 kids - "three boys and a princess" - (Tommy, 13; Matthew, 8; Catie, 6; Joseph, 4) and I'm still a stay-home mom. Craig is owner/director of Phys Therapy/Rehab facility and is still active in sports (tennis/golf/ soccer). Our daughter Catie was diagnosed in 2006 with Phelan-McDermid Syndrome, a genetic disorder of the 22nd chromosome that randomly affects some children (she was only the 275th diagnosed in the world!). Luckily we'd known something was wrong since early on and got her involved in therapies at 7 months which I truly believe made a big difference in her development. We have a great program within our school district - she is in the TMH class (trainable mentally handicapped). This said, she is the love of our lives and I can't imagine her any different. Our boys keep us busy...Tommy and Ma...Expand for more
tt are doing great in school and both play tennis and competitive soccer. I am a true soccer mom - even have the minivan! Joe just tags along with everyone and has me to himself while everyone else is at school. We live in a great area of West Tampa (Westchase)and are fortunate to be surrounded by a bounty of friends. I have never seen so many people get along so well! All in all, so much has changed since college - I guess that's called life. We never really do know where we'll end up or what the trip will be like. What I can say is - so far, so great! sue Workplace Worked as Speech Therapist for S/A BOCES in Hornell/ Arkport for a year after graduating college. Left to go to England with my then-boyfriend. Moved to Tampa in 1992 (brothers lived there and didn't want to return to NY), and we married that year. Worked at engineering firm (Black & Veatch) as admin asst. to Sr. Partner who mentored me in the co. financials. Moved to the finance dept. in 1997 and remained working project/regional finance til 'retiring' in 2001 before birth of 3rd child. Now a homemom with 4 kids (9 yrs, 5 yrs., 2 1/2 yrs., 4 mos as of 1/04). Go crazy sometimes but wouldn't have it any other way. Imagine will return to work someday - think about getting Masters in Speech but not decided.
