Has been a few years since Merrillville High School. Retired from DoD in 2021. Just returned from three weeks in Italy. Will do this every year.
After a career in Education in Miami and NYC, joined the Government in 1999 where I married Joe Guba from Andrean (70). Worked in DC and traveled the world. Was a Brookings Fellow working for Congressman Kline and the DoD Education Activity.
Joe and I have traveled the world. Joe retired from the Securities and Exchange Commission in September 2022 after working for Department of State and then DoD reporting directly to Condoleezza Rice, followed by working for four 4-star generals including, Casey, Coan, Colin Powell, and Petraeus. Joe worked in the White House in 2003. We were invited to a reception.

e taken numerous trips to Germany (9), London (18), Paris (6), Rome (7), and Venice (6). Did a swing through Australia, New Zealand, and Japan. Were part of the Veterans (Remembrance) Day and 70th Battle of Britain Air Show in the UK. Saw the Beach Boys at Royal Albert Hall as well as numerous London Calling (Hard Rock) concerts. We had a private tour of the Hard Rock vault in 2004. We visited every site used in the movie the Da Vinci Code. Rosslyn Chapel and the St. Clair house were awesome. We like Michelin Star restaurants. Have been to the Jules Verne in the Eiffel Tower twice as well as Chef Ramsey and other well-known restaurants.
Was not a football fan. Joe went to every Notre Dame vs USC football game for 45 years. I went to the Notre Dame games from 2000 to 2016.
Have completed most of my bucket list. Going to Egypt in 2025.
Enjoying what we have left of life.
Best to all
