Stephanie's Story
Stephanie Williams moved to Pittsburgh in July 1972 with Belinda Johnson and Marilyn McKenzie to pursue careers as legal secretaries. However, the events that went on in "Crinklewood Towers" were better left there in 1972. Stephanie moved to Compton, California in December of 1972 and stayed out west for three months returning to Farrell in February 1973. With no avail of being hired in the Shenango Valley I moved to Washington, D.C. in March 1973 where I was hired as a clerk typist in the Literary Section at the Library of Congress for six years. During tenure at the Library I married Stephen L. Sheffield in April 1976 and was blessed with a daughter in July 1977. I moved on to further career challenges by joining forces with the "Congressional Black Caucus," on Capital Hill where I worked as an administrative secetary for the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation for three years. The Capitol Hill experience will always be cherished in my soul forever and ever. After divorcing and becoming an official "single parent" I found that my career needed a boost to survive the economics in D.C. I was hired and trained as a "Legal Secretary" for the ...Expand for more
law firm of "Epstein, Becker, Borsody and Green, P.C." who specialized in government and labor law. During my tenure with the law firm - I attended workshops and numerous computer classes getting ready for the new "cyberspace age." What a blessing - that I was able to get in and get the knowledge that I carry with me today - who knew that eight years of legal knowledge would be rewarding to bring back home to Farrell. Moving back to the Shenango Valley has brought me closer to the spirit within because I never knew how blessed I was to be able to move back home. My education is an Associate Degree from Penn State Shenango Campus in Business Administration and a Bachelor Degree in Special Education from Slippery Rock University (CPAD) Program. I have a career as a Self-employed Family Daycare Provider; Fosterparent for the Mercer County Children and Youth Services; Tutor for the
Farrell Area School District. I'm Blessed in so many ways. My daughter now 31 and one grandchild four years old are my blessings along with good Health. Thanking God everyday.
Sincerely.
