Penny's Story
I got engaged during my senior year to Allen Sturgill we got married six months after graduation. We moved to San Antonio, Texas in 1981 because of the recession. We were there for a little over a year. Our oldest son was born there in 1982. Our youngest son was born after we moved back here in 1984.
My younger brother was killed in 1989. He graduated from Stebbins in 1984. He left behind a son and daughter. His daughter graduated from Stebbins this year.
Allen started his own company in 1991 and became very successful. Since I took vocational classes in clerical work we worked together until we separated. We were married for 24 years and have been divorced since 2004. We lived in Fairborn for about 20 years. I lived in Beavercreek for a couple of years not far from the mall. I don't regret getting married at 18 years old. We were very happy until the last couple of years of our marriage. It was like we both hit our 40's and grew apart.
Our youngest son graduated from Ohio State a couple of years ago and works for Allen now. Our oldes...Expand for more
t went to Ohio State for a year and kind of lost his way for awhile. He now lives on his own and works for Allen too. Allen is re-married now so we don't talk much anymore. My mom passed away in March 2008 and I have moved in my Dad to help him out. I'm actually staying in my old bedroom, that really feels weird. We are living here with my 2 cockatiels, my 2 cats I rescued when they were sbout 4 weeks old. This past summer we had to have my dads cairn terrier put down because of cancer.. I bowl on two bowlings leagues twice a week. I still work for the company but from home now, for obvious reasons. I really haven't gotten into the dating scene since we divorced for emotional and physical reasons. But my best friend is a man.
I know I was very shy and quiet during high school and would be surprised if very many people would remember me. That's why I never upgraded to gold member. I thought it would be a waste of money. But I have changed alot over the years and I'm not so shy and quiet anymore. So I have upgraded to a gold membership.
