Rosemarie's Story
Hopefully someone will remember me from back in our day. When I left OH, I lived in Chicago, New Orleans and settled in Green Bay, WI. I have two daughters, two granddaughters and four great-granddaughters (females rule) lol. I worked as a Domestic Violence Advocate for 18 years, and prior to that in separate group homes for troubled teenage males and females. Thirteen of the eighteen years was spent working on an Indian Reservation, so I have learned a lot of the Indian values and traditions.

I still remember when Donna Jwuc dyed my hair REALLY blonde, and I thought my mom was going to take her brown hair coloring and pour it right out of the bottle onto my hair. I still remember when a group of us girls (names will remain untold) went to Garfield Park and crawled on our stomachs to watch and wait to see which one of the boys was going to earn first place for drinking the most beer. Was the prize called a "church key" which was the bottle opener. I'm pretty sure it was Mark Lilly or Teddy Funk. Those were the days, and I have cherised many a moment!
