Helane's Story
Hello old friends!
How are you? It is amazing to think that each of us has either reached the beginning of his/her seventh decade, or is about to do so. Time seems to be moving very quickly now, doesn't it?
So here is my life, in brief: I am the mother of three, and grandmother of two. Being a grandma is the best job in the world--so many of the joys of parenthood with a lot fewer of the stressors. i have been an attorney at the same firm for 35 years now. I practice real estate law, so thankfully I never have to appear in court! I do a lot of writing for my job, and I am thankful to Miss Hirschoff from ninth grade English class for drumming the basics of English grammar into our heads, as well as teaching us how to carefully analyze what we read.

I hope that life has been kind to each of you. Life is much more complicated than we ever anticipated when we were in high school, but I suspect that it has been a very interesting journey for all of us. Now it is your turn to share a bit of your story with your classmates. We may not have all been friends or even known one another in high school, but attending school together--at Mountain High, in the early 1970's--was a unique experience shared by only 360 people, and that creates a special bond among us.
