I LEFT BULLARD HAVENS IN 1953, PACKED FULL OF WONDERFUL MEMORIES OF MY FELLOW STUDENTS AND FACULTY. IN 1955 WORKING AT H J NELSON MACHINE CO, I MARRIED DICK NICHOLS. WE LIVED IN BRIDGEPORT. IN 1959,I WAS WORKING AT SIKORSKY'S AS AN ENGINEERING AIDE, WHEN I BECAME A MOTHER OF A BEAUTIFUL GIRL NAMED SUSAN. IN 1960 I LOST MY BROTHER JIMMY IN A TRAGIC ACCIDENT, AND WE MOVED TO MILFORD TO THE HOUSE WE GREW UP IN. IN 1966 I WENT TO WORK WITH MY BROTHER HOWARD'S BUILDING COMPANY, "RY BEN BUILDING CO"
DOING SECRETARIAL AND SALES WORK FOR THE NEXT 11 YEARS.
MY SON, DANNY, WAS BORN IN 1968.
