Debbie Buonocore:  

Life Lou and I live in the same county we both grew up in - but closer to Princeton. We've been married 25+ years. I teach a 5th grade "inclusion" class in the South Brunswick public schools system ('LOVE my job!) and Lou is a Construction Code Offical in a neighboring town. My job has taken me to San Antonio, TX, St. Louis, MO and Princeton University as a student. I thrive on the challenges! At home, we keep busy with our three cats, traveling in our RV, and with our church. Singing in the choir, helping with hospitality and organizing and teaching Children's Church are just a few things I do there. I also keep active politically - in the Republican Party, of course! (~'love ya, Dubya!) Our extended family is growing - we have twelve nieces & nephews, and seven "greats" - 2 great nieces, and 4 g-nephews! Two nieces were married and moved to Michigan; and one of them is expecting the first great on MY side of the family - so our family continues to grow & move to other areas of the US! I've met the President, and had my photo taken with him and Mrs. Bush. I've also met and been photographed with Mike Huckabee and John McCain, so either one of them was my "vote" for GOP candidate. My family is politically active, so I have many opportunities... I'm hoping to visit a few more Presidential Museums and libraries in the next year. My Mom went home to Heaven seven years ago, (Dec. 04) after two years of severe debiliatation after a major stroke - I'm proud that we kept her at home; My sister Ruth, oldest brother Tom and I "nursed" her throughout... probably the toughest trial I've ever faced, but wonderful memories...I have no regrets. My father, is gone on to Heaven now, too- almost five years ago. (Jan. 2007). I miss him terribly. We spent a lot of time together in the last four years of his life. He was a wonderful father and friend. I especially miss clothes shopping with him, sleeping over at his condo, and traveling with him - he was a speed demon to the end! "No one will give Me a speeding ticket ...I'm a minister!" School I attended Willett School in South River - but only up through fourth grade -My Kindergarten teacher was Mrs. Tracey, who I loved dearly. I had a few others who were good, too: Mrs. Grayson, Miss Horowitz, and Miss Blonkowski. In Fifth grade, I transferred to a Private, christian School - Timothy Christian in Piscataway, where I spent 5th - 8th grades a...Expand for more
