Rose Mary's Story

School My biggest crush in high school was Armando Cadena. I considered him to be my friend but he was really cute and handsome. After awhile he became a close friend, he would ask me for assistance with courses we shared such as English class but he was always a gentleman. He had a girlfriend, Irene, who he adored, I could always tell this about him. He was what everyone may consider a gentle giant. I would say Armando would be one person I would like to say hello to. *My favorite teacher in high school was Mr. Jones, my sociology teacher, he was fun and always happy! It was my favorite class. College *My college days were hectic but fun. Everyday was an adventure for me. My best times were attending college with my husband and brother in law. We made a funny threesome but the memories will remain with us forever! I was not what you may consider a college student. I did not attend college right after high school. I attended the Knapp Memorial Methodist Hospital LVN nursing school and soon after I graduated(1976) I left for Europe(Germany) as my husband was in the Army and stationed in Mannheim, Germany. *While enrolled at UT-PAU nursing school I remember popping those caffeine laced tablets...Expand for more
to stay awake and study. Did I become a pill popping addict? No, it was during the last leg of my college years during the hectic final exams that I took the pills. I have never taken them again. What a trip! If my mom and dad knew about this they would kill me! *My college years were very difficult but very rewarding. I plan to continue to pursue a degree in Health Care Management. I have a degree in nursing and I am a registered nurse. Workplace I currently work as a Registered nurse for a home health agency located in McAllen. I am the Regional Administrator for this agency and I get to travel to San Antonio where the agency has a 2nd location. My job is my dream job, one that requires critical thinking and I am very grateful for the education that I was provided at Mercedes High School. My only regret is realizing that my first year of high school was the most important and this is the time I felt lonely and lost in a new high school. I did not have many friends at the time! From this experience I was able to teach my children the importance of school and college. Military I was not in the military but my husband was/Army, 76-80. My daughter Cheri was born in Germany. It was a great time!
