Sharon's Story

Greetings! Since my happy days at Cascade High with many of you - and some great teachers that we probably didn't appreciate as much as we should - I have been very fortunate. My soulmate and husband Steve is a former Lt. Colonel in the US Marine Corps and was also a Police Sergeant in Chatham, NJ. His knowledge of the world, pure patrotism and personal sacrifices have been an inspiration to me; knowing him has made me a better person on many levels. Steve worked in the Pentagon for twelve years and on a terrible morning in 2001 survived the 9-11 terrorist attack that killed many of his friends and co-workers. A short time later his wife Marilyn of 16 years died of breast cancer after a 7 year battle; she was 40, and is missed by all who knew her. Her only sister, Karen, has become very special to me and Steve and I consider her to be our sister. Steve and I both have lovely daughters we are very proud of - Brittany and Courtney. Britt is a mother of three boys - Jack and twins Kodiak and Kavik. She lives on Lummi Island (Whatcom Co) WA with her partner Micah. He is a Makah Native Artist/Carver. Courtney and husband Jeremy have two beautiful children and they live happily in Waxhaw, NC. Grandson, Wyatt and granddaughter, Mackenna keep them on the go. My mother Winifred lives in Sumas with my brother, Duncan. I see her often. My Dad passed away...Expand for more
from Alzheimers. I have enjoyed a lengthy and successful, public safety, law enforcement career in Washington State beginning with fire and police dispatching at the WSU Campus Police and Whitman County Sheriff's Office in Colfax while attending WSU in Pullman; then the Snohomish County Sheriff's Office as a Deputy Sheriff. More recently, Later, I was fortunate to serve the town of Ruston, near Tacoma, as the Chief of Police. Steve was re-assigned to the Pentagon in 2009 and we moved to Alexandria, VA in January of 2010. I worked as a government contractor to provide training curriculum and development programs for the civilian police on the bases of the US Marine Corps. We won Omni media awards for our work in the government and education categories. Retired in 2016 and returned to WA. Currently living in the foothills of Mt Baker at Maple Falls. Would enjoy hearing from anyone in the class of "71" and hear how you're doing. I have stayed in touch with my dear friends Deonn and Torchy from our class. They are both the best friends anyone could have. FYI, I have lost my English accent completely now. Although I am told that it surfaces slightly if I have a cocktail, OR I'm really pissed off...I am unable to confirm these third party observations and avoid both the above situations. Glad to live in the Pacific Northwest. Warmest Regards, Sharon
