Wanda (Matney)'s Story

I recently started thinking about this year being 50 years since I graduated and was wondering if there would be a celebration for it. We had around 250 students graduate that year (the population in Grundy was much larger then). I would love to know as much as I could about where everyone is. I met Walter Schmidt at the Grundy Baptist Church in 1970. He came to Grundy from California. We lived for 23 years in Virginia and then we moved to Florida for my his job. I came here brokenhearted because I felt my life was just the way I wanted it in Va. I wasn't sure I could find the same circumstances here. But God had some pleasant surprises for me. I already had my bachelor's degree (in Psychology) from Liberty University before we moved and after a year of wondering around looking for employment I found I could become an educational therapist by getting training from an organization whose headquarters was in Norfolk Va. How amazing that I would have to move eight hundred miles away to learn...Expand for more
about something in my home state. Recently we learned that one of our granddaughters has Dyslexia so I get to use my training to help her. It means so much to me to do this especially since her daddy had the same difficulty but it wasn't diagnosed while he was growing up. He struggled quite a lot through school but he still made it through the University of Florida with an engineering degree. He works on the building projects in the Imagineering Dept at Disney. He says work has never been as hard as school was. Our younger son is an attorney (also graduated from U. F.). He is a compensation mediator for the state of Florida court system. Both our sons, our daughters-in-law and three grandchildren are Christians. We enjoy being together and will be flying to California in June to celebrate with Walter's dad for his 90th birthday. A great summary of how God has worked in our lives would be " He hath done all things well" from Mark 7:37. Hope to have contact with anyone from class of 69.
