Cay's Story
Life
After graduation in 1978, I married for the first time (big mistake!!), but the marriage resulted in my first child, a son, born in 1986. This marriage ended in 1988, and I quickly remarried (got it right the second time!!) in 1989. Our second son was born in 1990. My second husband adopted my first son in 1993. I moved to the Denver area in 1981 and have been here ever since. I attended Fort Lewis for 2 years, and Metro State for 1 year, majoring in accounting. I have been employed full and part-time as an accountant for over 20 years now. I am currently employed as the CFO of a medium-sized excavation business, and I love it! My oldest son started college at UNC in 2005, and my younger son is in the 11th grade. I spent the last several years caring for my parents through illnesses and deaths, ending with the loss of my dad in October, 2004. During those years, I drove back and forth from Aurora to Durango many, many times, by my calculation, I racked up over 10,000 miles. I became a born again Christian in 1993, a fact which would surprise almost anybody who...Expand for more
remembers me from high school, but as the song goes, Amazing Grace saved a wretch like me.
I have lived in the same house for 20 years now and am beginning to look ahead to the years after the kids have moved out. After all, my husband and I have never been alone together, we have always been parents. We have been very active in volunteering over the years, in church, in the charter school that our kids attended, and now in the high school years in football organizations and the school library.
We have been blessed with an excellent marriage and a deep commitment to Christ, and the two best sons ever (I might be biased). We are not financially wealthy, but have what we consider to be a fabulous life.
I was diagnosed 5 years ago with Lupus, and although it is a daily struggle for the whole family, we are determined to live the best life that we can in the time that we have. I have had to learn to let go of control-not an easy thing for an anal-retentive accountant type personality like me, but I am learning.
I would like to hear from others from the good old class of 78.
