Laura's Story
I have no idea where Classmates.com got the blurb previously listed as "my story", but here's what really happened!
I attended the University of Illinois in Urbana for a year following graduation and then got married, which definitely lengthened the time it took me to finish college. We moved to the D.C. area in 1967 where both of us worked and continued our educations. I finally finished my bachelor's in 1972 and then completed my master's in 1986 at Johns Hopkins.

My only son died in a drowning accident in 1989, but I do get to share Bob's grandson who is a Corporal in the Marines. We round out our "family" with four cats and loving friends and neighbors.
