Sam's Story

LIFE If you've come to my page at Classmates and viewed my profile and pictures, then you can obviously see that my husband and I are avid Renaissance fans and Medieval Reenactors with also a touch of Piracy thrown in. This hobby of ours has turned into a lifestyle that we enjoy with many of our friends we've come to know through this venue. But alas, all good things must finally come to an end. (Thank you Obama) Our interests have waned as we've aged along with our finances. We are now focused on hearth and home raising our animals (dogs & chickens) and herbs and veggies in our mini-farm home garden. My husband Steve and I have been married 26 years and we are still crazy about each other. I've waited a lifetime for a man such as this who shares my life as much as we share each others interests and dreams. We are polar opposites, but so much alike. God answered my long list of wishes in my prayers and couldn't have done a better job. SCHOOL My first love was a boy in 9th grade named Michael Goodwin in Portland, Oregon. The teacher that Inspired me the most was my Science teacher Mrs. O'Brien, from A & M Consolidated Middle School in Texas. She genuinely showed interest in me as a real person and sparked my curiosity in science, after that Ms. Yerian, my English teacher from West High in Columbus, Ohio. If I could do it all over again, are you kidding? No Way! I was much too ...Expand for more
insecure and awkward at that age. Classmates & friends couldn't really figure me out and I didn't know where I fit in? Kids can be really cruel sometimes. Well? You know... WORKPLACE In Ohio before graduating high school I began working in the service dept. of an Oldsmobile dealership as a Customer Service greeter and car maintenance record keeper and also did eight live TV commercials for the dealer. Two years later I worked part time for Arthur Treachers Fish & Chips and then on to Sears Distribution Center for a fulltime job after graduation. Leaving Sears for a better offer in Aerospace Manufacturing in heating & cooling systems engineering & design as a mailroom clerk and office supply mgr. and general gopher. After leaving my 1st husband, I headed to Seattle and briefly sold cars where I really got an education in sales, but what I knew most was manufacturing and I turned towards the Aerospace manufacturing corridor in Washington State. During the ups and downs of aerospace industry layoffs I'd work as a temp and ended up working for MCI/WorldCom as an Administrative Assistant and general all around Office Mgr. And coming full circle, I am now a self employed business partner with my 2nd husband of our Roofing Company going on 26 years now. I loved all of my experiences since it taught me a great deal about business and people. Each job I had is where God wanted me to be.
