Linda's Story

Okay, the last 39/40 yrs is a whole lot of time. Here goes...I was married to Boyd Holm for 23 yrs. We have three sons, Chris, Kevin and Kyle who have blessed us with five grandchildren. I have been married to a super guy, Bob, for ten years. A friend of mine kept asking if I had seen her profile on some dating site. When I looked, I had to have a profile myself so I threw one out there not caring. However, to make a long story short, Bob found me and we've been having fun together ever since. I feel very lucky. So, yes, you can meet wonderful people online. He is Canadian, so in 2001 I immigrated to Canada and so did my youngest son, Kyle. Immigration - what an experience that is. We lived in Edmonton, Alberta and I loved it except for when it got down to -40F. Of course the joke goes that it is a dry cold; like do you care when it's minus 40?! Anyway, in 2007 we moved to Puyallup, WA. This time Bob got to go through immigration (did I mention I'm a masochist?). We moved because I was an IT analyst for Weyerhaeuser and ...Expand for more
it became pretty difficult to be 1,000 miles away from the rest of my team. A bigger reason was that my dad had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's and I just didn't think my brother should have to be the only one left to deal with it all. I'm not working now, so I make the trip down to Portland a lot. Eventually, who knows where we'll end up. Bob has a son and daughter in Saskatchewan and my son is still in Edmonton. My other two sons are in Olympia and Puyallup so no matter where we live, we miss someone. Maybe we'll just run away to Vegas and not worry about it. I love to garden and have had a love affair with photography most of my life. Was doing weddings/bridal shows, family and corporate photography, but got burned out. Probably didn't help that I was also in IT working a lot of overtime. Now I just take photos to make me happy. I lost my yearbooks in one of my moves, so please, if I forget someone's name, be gentle with me. My mother also died with Alzheimer's so by our 50th reunion I could remember even fewer! Linda
