Colette's Story
I moved from Thousand Oaks to northern California in 1979. I was married for 34 years to Gary Flakus (class of '71). We owned a construction business and enjoyed life. In 2008, my husband was diagnosed with cancer, we closed down our business, and now I'm single. I went back to college, yes, at this age (over 50)! I recently got my Registered Nursing license, but haven't started my new career yet. It is odd to feel like I'm starting all over again, but it may also be a blessing. I have two grown children. A son, 32 , who lives in Portland, Oregon and a daughter, 28, who lives in San Diego. I love traveling and have gone to many places...France, Ger...Expand for more
many, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Egypt, Jamaica, Cayman Islands, Cancun/Mexico, Hawaii and all over the United States...but, I still have a long list of places that I want to visit. I haven't kept up with technology and just started using Facebook last month. At times I feel like I'm coming out of a cave due to my lack of understanding all the new ways of communicating/networking with each other. It is very different, but at the same time I also find it fascinating when someone out of my past finds me. It really is amazing! (I'm closing this membership at the end of the trail 3 months....12/20/11, but you can still find me via FB using my married name.)
