Where to begin, been married 5 times, the last seems to be the charm. I had two daughters from my first marriage, Melissa and Christine. Melissa is married and has two sons, Christine has never married but has one son. My present husband had 9 children 4 of which were grown and on their own before I met him. When I met him he had the 5 the oldest was 10 and the youngest 2. I have adopted 4-5 children. Together we have 12 grandchildren. I am a graduated of USU in Logan. My major was history. I have worked various places over the years. Joined the Army in 1991 served 30 days then required foot surgery, got a honorable medical discharge. Had the surgery then due to a family issue never went back. Worked 8 yrs for Autoliv, then other bogus jobs to get by. Presently work for Kier Management in Ogden. I am Sr. Vice President of the MCLA #445 James Jay Williams Detachment, here in Ogden, Utah. We provide volenteer support for the Marine Corps Toys 4 Tots, packages for wounded Marines.

School
Ah so many, from dances to letter lighting up the canyon. Hanging with friends, riding our bikes 7 miles to sch...Expand for more
ool in the spring just for fun, then riding on to palasaide resivoir to swim before riding home. And once we went west of Manti and a fish got caught in "Mouse's" hair and was flipping around and got more and more tangled. Spring break camping on the hills was an experience, my sister had be guarding a dutch oven chicken. Needless to say one of her classmate's which shall remain nameless carried me and Marion into our tent and tied us up and ate the GDChicken as he called it... he left the carcus and the rice. And Marion's sister Florence untied us when she got back to camp.
Military
I joined the US ARMY in November of 1991 I went to basic training at Fort Jackson, So Carolina. I was in 30 days when I was discharged for medical reasons. I required foot surgery so I recieved an honorable medical discharge. While in basic training the situation in IRAQ changed from Desert Shield to Desert Storm. This was why the ARMY didn''t do the surgery. Normally they would have done the surgery and re-cycled me into another platoon. I was about to go back in when I got a good job offer that paid more. Since my daughters were young and other personal problems I decided to stay and take the job. This was one of those I should have gone back in and didn't.
