Roni's Story
Life
After leaving Maconaquah, we moved to Big Spring, TX and I graduated from Big Spring High School. From there I went to Texas Tech University and majored in Art Ed. Some of you might have had my mother as an art teacher at MHS! She now lives in San Antonio, TX. I got a job teaching in Stamford, Tx, then married Tom Conard and moved to Dallas. Tom is an airline pilot and worked for 25 years for USAirways. We moved from Dallas to Winston-Salem NC, to Virginia Beach (where we had two children, a boy,Chris and girl,Stephany.) Then we moved to Dover,PA where we lived for 18 years. With the airlines in trouble and 25 years in the business, Tom retired and got a job flying for Vietnam Airlines. It has been an interesting life! I taught art off and on since college and now am back in PA again after 3 years in Saigon.

unately that was short lived-- home for 9mos when the economic crisis put Tom out of his corporate flight job. Laid off by his company as they downsized their flight dept, we went back to Vietnam in Jan 2009. The biggest shock was for our newly acquired Collie,Dusty. He went from a country home in the woods of PA to a serviced apt. in the middle of Ho Chi Minh City with 10million people!!
But life is good. We love the people and living in Asia is quite an experience. I do volunteer work with a local charity and am an active member of the Ex-patriot women's group. I mostly help women from other countries to find a "place" here in Vietnam and help them settle into the culture. It is a social group,too, so have learned how to play Mah Jong and had lots of opportunities to visit many places here on the other side of the world.
