Life, Spent 4yrs. in the military, best thing for me, gave me a sense of purpose, grew up alot, set me on my path to nursing, as I worked in th Operating room as an o.r. tech at Landsthul General across from Ramstein AFB in Germany.

Living in Charlottesville, Va. working at The University of Virginia Medical Center as a registered nurse in the Operating Room. I'm the head nurse in charge of General Surgery and am a member of the Transplant team for livers, kidneys, and pancreas transplants. I have been here 19 years and find the work rewarding. I am divorced, I have two children, a son and a daughter. I have two cats Cleopatra, and Xena Princess warrior. I spend alot of my free time in the mountains at my dads place in Montebello,Va. fishing, hunting, hiking, camping just enjoying the mountains. I drive an 18 year old ford truck (she's my baby) thats the best thing i've owned. I still hang out with my best friend Steve Greene class of 72 who lives about 1 1/2 hrs away from me.

ose days at Cole over a few cold ones and discuss snake hill, football games, the girls we wished we could have dated, and of course the best times of our lives going to Cole and living in San Antonio. Steve is fighting kidney disease but is getting along pretty good. He has his good days and bad but mostly good, he's retired from Fed -Ex, lives on a big farm with his wife Marcia and his two cats Troy and Merlin, plus his pet Turkey "Big Boy". It's a wild turkey he's raised from a chick. Best times of my teen years were at Cole and in San Antonio. The friendships I made while there are the best gifts I could have ever been given. I sure miss Texas!! I wonder if anyone still remembers going to Edge Falls and jumping off the cliffs, that water was always cold, then those nights at Snake Hill in steves wagon drinking boonesfarm, they were the best times.Go Cougars!!!! Would love to hear from anyone in the class of 72! Listen if by chance there is a reunion please contact me, I will be there. I envy my classmates that stayed in Texas as you were able to keep in touch and see each other quite often I would have liked that, but the memories are always there for me, my best to all who read this, take care.
