Phyllis's Story
After graduation I married, had my son and we moved from Albany, 6 1/2 years later my daughter was born. I was married 24 years then divorced. Stayed single for about 11 years.
Growing up there were 7 kids in the family. My little 9 year old sister was hit and killed by a car in my senior year. I remember so well at the time wondering how in the world were we going to go on living. It is hard to believe that was 40 years ago. In 1986 my 31 year old brother passed away with cancer (melonoma). In 1992 my sister that was 22 months older than me (she was 42 years old) passed away with colon cancer.
My parents still live just outside of Albany and I have one sister and two brothers that live in or very close to Albany.
I have been married again for a little over 5 years. Today I have a wonderful son and daughter (and husband) and 6 precious grandchildren and another one on the way.
My husband has 2 sons and a daughter and 5 grandchildren so together we have 11 soon to be 12 grandchildren.
Life is good and I give our Father in Heaven all the Praise and Glory.

NEW GRANDSON
To add to my story I now have 7 grandchildren. Sept. 8, 2010, I was blessed with another healthy grandson. My daughter and son-in-law now have 2 boys and 2 girls. Of course he is adorable.
My son and his wife have the other 3 grandchildren (2 boys and 1 girl). Hopefully they will be moving back to the east coast next summer. Arizona is beautiful, just too far away, but that is how it is if you are in the military. Actually if you are lucky enough to get to live in Arizona while in the military!
I hope things are going well for each of you and would like to hear from you when you have a chance.
Always,
Phyllis
