Barbara's Story

STERCHI, CENTRAL HS, MARYVILLE COLLEGE, MARYVILLE UNIV-ST LOUIS. I would hope the school friends remember me as a genuine friend, caring and trustworthy. Integrity and empathy, are my touchstones. After CHS, I attended Maryville College in one year of pre-med and became engaged to Bill Merritt. Mom almost stroked when her 'wall flower' daughter left college and married at 19!

Back to civilian status in 1980, Bill went to work in the aircraft industry and we were off to St. Louis, MO 6 years, central CA 1 year, and Atsugi, JAPAN for 4 months. We returned from Asia, and went back to St Louis for another 18 years where I finally graduated with my nursing degree from the Other Maryville-Maryville University-St Louis.

I work as a Clinical Research Project Manager in the Office of the Army Surgeon General.
