Mary's Story

Life Joined the military in 1980 and went to "Boot Camp" in Cape May, NJ. Went to California for school and then transferred to New York (Lower Manhattan) to a unit called Governors Island. Met my husband, Ronald there in Sep 1982 and married in March 1983. We transferred to St. Louis, MO where our first daughter (Coral) was born in May 1985. Transferred to Cheboygan, MI in 1986 and our second daughter (Kera) was born in March 1989. Transferred to Kodiak, AK (beautiful little island) and then transferred to California in 1992. Moved from California in 1997 to Florida and have been here since. My husband just retired from U.S. Coast Guard with 25 years of service. He is now currently working in a Civil Service position at same place he retired from...just different uniform. We have been married for 22 years. For myself....put myself through Nursing School here in Florida and passed State Boards first time. What a relief that was!!!

ving Clifton Forge, I have been to places that I never thought I would ever see. Travelled the Northern route from Michigan to Washington State to Alaska. Alaska is a really beautiful place and the Bald Eagles come in during the winter for mating. Was not unusual to see 40+ Eagles in one tree....it was unbelieveable, spectacular and breath taking. Travelled the Southern route when we left California to Florida. We got to see the Hoover Dam, The Grand Canyon (which is just simply amazing and breath taking), various Indian Reservations, the Painted Canyons of New Mexico, and various other locations. I can say that I have had a good time with a lot of good memories with my family. I have often wondered whatever happened to the people I graduated with and others that I knew. If also seems that nobody really cares about who they had friendships with or even how much they meant to each other all those years ago. I am constantly reminded of how easier life was 20+ years ago and that for some reason still think of the friends I had back in Clifton Forge. Or at least the ones I thought were friends. I know that people do tend to grow up more through the years...but it doesn't mean you forget where you came from and how you got there. Whatever happened to the friends we left behind all those years ago? God only knows, but if you who are reading this remember one thing....I do remember every one of you and cherish the years that I did know you. Hope your lives are happy and joyful!! God Bless all of You!!
