Jill's Story
Hey, everyone!
Many of you got partially caught up on my life at the 20th reunion in 2005. I went to college at San Jose State and Mission College but never did get my degree. Working ended up taking over my education.
I moved to Portland, OR in 1991 for some guy....and it ended 9 months later - no, I wasn't pregnant - he just dumped me.
So I get a job and an apartment and instead of moving home, made a life for myself there. I got really in to dancing and got a good job at Tektronix. I taught Country & Western Line and Partner dancing 3 nights a week for 6 years. That was a blast and kept me in great shape.
I met my first husband, Chris Rhodes, on a camp out in central Oregon in 1993 and we were married in October of 1994. We had two beautiful children together, Lilly (now 12) and Guy (now 10). Unfortunately, he decided he didn't want to be married anymore and we split up in 1998 when the children were age 2 a...Expand for more
nd 4 months old.
It was rough going there for me for a while as a single mom with two kids to raise, but, with hard work and a great support structure of friends, and a lot of praying, I did all right. I met Michael Marks in November 1999 and we have been together ever since. We got married in Las Vegas (FUN place to get married) in March of 2002. He is a great husband and father and I am very blessed to have such a great family.
My jobs have been varied over the years but I ended up landing in sales. I sell service contracts on television broadcast equipment and am quite good at it. My company gave me an "opportunity" to keep my job by moving to Denver earlier this year so,...I did it. We moved to a town southeast of Denver and are loving it. Kids love it, Mike has a good job and I am having my best sales year yet.
Well - that's about it for now.
Hope you and yours have lots of happiness and many blessings.
