Kay Brown:  

Life My life has been from a farmers wife to a college professor. In between I have raised to children- a boy who is now 41and a daughter who is 45. MY HOW TIME FLIES. My first husband Larry Miller, died of cancer when my kids were in high school. I spent several years in Sacramento working as a special education teacher. Was offered a job in South Alabama to teach "Iam O.K. You're O.K." My kids and I returned to California a year later (Federal Politics you know) after working on a Title 4 Desergreation project. We arrived in California, I drove a rice harvester for 8 weeks until I got a job with the California Department of Education. 18 years later I left the department and formed a educational consulting business. Then I got a job as a principal of a non-public school for the emotionally disturbed children. It was there that I met my husband. I hired him as a teacher. He became the administrator of a school for the emotionally disturned children. I worked for the National University as a professor and coordinator of student teachers. Tom was diagnosed with colon cancer. He had surgery and many months of chemotherapy. During that time we purchased a motor home and joined a group called the "old wheels" we were the youngest old wheel. We enjoyed the travel and continued to work at our respective jobs. We started to restore a 1929 Model A sport coupe it was a great deal of fun, but soon Tom did not have the strength to complete the things that needed to be done. We passed it on to my son, Scott. He is in the process of completing the restoration. We missed the 50th reunion, due to some complications of Tom's cancer. I do not plan to miss any of future gatherings. We moved to North Carolina so Tom could be part of a Cancer Trial at Duke University. We have spent a year and two months. Tom died on December 4th of 2007. He had a 4 1/2 years of a battle to beat the cancer and finally God took him to His Heavenly Home. He is so very much missed. I moved back to Sacramento area. Most of my family lives here. I have enjoyed spending time with friends and attended the 55th Class reunion. Fondly your classmate, Kay Jett Brown UPDATE ON KAY: Well, I have returned to California now for almost 3 years. I am looking forward to our 55th reunion in August. I am living with my son in Loomis California. We have this lovely home on 2 acres on the outskirts of the town. I feel that I am living back in the country again. I love gar...Expand for more
