Diana's Story
Life
Married Don Blews (BHS63) a month after my graduation. Had 2 kids, Donny who is married, living in Orlando, and Cheri (now married with 2 kids, Casey age 15 and Tani age 14) who lives in Greenville SC. Don and I are now divorced, but he is still my best friend.
I left NJ in '74 and never looked back. I've lived in NJ, VA, NC, SC, GA, FL, CA AND NV.
After 21 years living alone and loving it, I met my very special Mr. Right. Bruce and I have been married since November 2003, and I've never been happier. We live in Las Vegas, and it's a blast!
I am a Production Control Manager for a manufacturing company.
I'd love to hear from old friends! I wonder how many live towards the west coast now.
College
I got married right out of high school and had 2 kids by the time I was 21, so no time for college when I was young! In 1977 I went back to school evenings (while working 2 jobs and being a single mom). It was a great get-away for me. Funny, in high school, I barely made passing grades - after all - wasn't high school a place to meet boys and just have fun??? But in college I had a 3.9 G.P.A. Go figure.
Workplace
Wow - work. I've moved to so many places which means I've also worked a lot of places. I think in reality a family of gypsies left me on the Lewis' doorstep! That's the only explanation I can come up with for my wanderlust. Here is my work history to the best of my recollection -
1 - Braeburn Nursing Home in Towaco (after school job as a Nurses Aide)
