Debbie's Story
Hi fellow classmates. Technology has come so far since we graduated hasn't it? Who would have thought that we would be getting in touch with each other on a computer instead of by mail, phone or in person. Anyway, if you don't remember me i'm not sure I can tell you enough about myself to help you remember. Oh I know I am Jimmy's Smiths sister. Does that help? HA HA !!! One year I was a hornet mascot. I was in cosmetology and I cut hair for several of my classmates.
I still live in the Colcord area on a Dairy farm with my husband Gene. We adopted a boy and a girl and also raised one of my cousins and a nephew. So I feel I have 4 children. There are 9 grandchildren between 3 of the kids. Gene and I are raising 2 of our grandchildren....Expand for more
Mariah is 12 y/o and Shamica is 10 y/o. They keep us young and on our toes.
After helping Gene on the farm for 17 years I persued my career and got an associates degree in nursing in 1996. I am currently a school nurse at Colcord Schools. I have been at Colcord schools for 13 years now. I really enjoy the children at all 3 buildings (high school, middle and elementary school). I also went back to school and got my Bachelors in Nursing in 2008.
In March of 1999 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I went through surgery and chemotherapy at that time. I am 13 years cancer free as of today. Praise God.
I hope we will be able to get the entire class hooked up on this site. Hope to hear from each of you soon
Love always
Debbie
