School
Graduated from North Syracuse High School a year after Richared Gere in '68' and since then it is no longer a High School. I was a jockette and what they would call a 'stud'... LOL. I was in no specific group of people but hung with many. My 2 best friends in High School were Lynda Nojaim and Barb Trumble. High school was always a safe haven for me and of course I enjoyed partying especially before the Football Games behind Williams Groceries :D
College
OMG....where does one start when it comes to college? I was married in 70 and divorced in 73 ... YES! And then went to OCC where I learned to seriously party with the best! Went to concerts, partied at the POOR HOUSE WEST (now defunk) amongst many other places. I was involved with student government, received a scholarship and gr...Expand for more
aduated with honors 1975... how? Dunno! It was a wonderful life experience and I found out who I was during that time. My best friends: Dauncha, Donna, Janet, Danny, Everett , Kim , Sis & Betsy :) I played softball semi-professionally and recreation and boy did I drink some beers. I also was renamed "BYRD" & "THE SCHILLER KILLER"! I will let you think about that one ;) 1977 I moved on to Slippery Rock University (state college then)& the partying got better! Lived at the "COOPS" first (if the walls could talk!)& fell in love! Then moved into a mini Camping Trailer & the party went
on. Left for England in 1/78 for 4 mos. To do my Internship and on my return knew that those English people knew how to suck suds! My roomie's dad passed during this time & my dad was sick but by 5/79 & only by the Grace of the GODDESS, I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a BSSW...don't ask, I'm still trying to figure it out =:0 It was a great 2 1/2 years and memories, tears, pain & unknown growth spirts, of plenty I shall hold dear to my heart. No matter what it was all good and all a learning experience. And to think in 1968 I didn't think I was college material!
