Catherine's Story

Life I've been married for 28 years to my husband, Ted. We have been through a lot like everyone else and glad we have been able to endure trials and enjoy good times together. As I get older I realize more than ever to appreciate life and to be thankful of daily blessings; home, family and friendships. Also, keeping in my thoughts and prayers everyday those that have already gone ahead and praying for their joy in eternity. Moving on... We have two adult children, son Nik is 25 and a BioPsych major as well as an accomplished musician and daughter Olivia 24 a grad in PR/Marketing and working full time with the goal of being a hospital administrator. Neither yet married yet and so it doesn't look like I'll I'm anywhere near a candidate for grandbabies like some of my friends who've beat me to that pleasure!

ll the turns of good fortune should come their way. I just pray they have a long and happy journey through life. That's what would make me the happiest of all. I'm not busy in terms of a job out of my home, but I have been immersed the past couple years in writing and am almost finished with one novel and have begun two more. Currently, I'm compiling manuscripts ready to be presented to various publishing companies. Wish me luck. My teachers at Finney always told me I should write seriously. I guess it took me long enough to rise to that occasion! Although I didn't go to Finney for very long I really enjoyed it so much and have nothing but fond memories of the whole experience! I wish I could have known more of you a lot better- but no matter you have all contributed to me in a positive way and I thank you. My wish is that you are all blessed abundantly. Maybe we'll see each other at some future "Funky Finney" reunion.
