I had enough credits to skip the second semester of my senior year {mistake #1}. Then in March of '75 I married my high school sweetheart, Brent Murray {mistake #2}. We divorced in fall of '76 - my fault, not his. - and we're still friends. He's such a sweetheart!
I finally remarried 16 years later. His name is Dan Dorman. He's a Colonial grad also ('81) but years younger! And darn it, I forgot to train him! Ah well. He still makes me laugh. Together 22 years and married 21 years.

One of Katherine's favorite quotes is the Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi:
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
Where this hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon.
Where there is doubt, faith.
Where there is despair, hope.
Where there is darkness, light.
Where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant
That I may not so much seek
To be consoled, as to console.
To be understood, as to understand.
To be loved, as to love.
For
It is in giving, that we receive.
It is in forgiving, that we are forgiven.
It is in dying, that we are born to eternal life.
~~~St. Francis of Assisi
I was given a plaque with this prayer on it by my Bible Lit teacher Donna Peral. I wish I could find her so I could tell her what this has meant to my life.
But also, lest anyone think me noble and good:
"Why is it no one ever sent me yet one perfect limousine, do you suppose? Ah no, it's always just my luck to get one perfect rose."
~~~Barbara Michaels
