Gloria's Story

I am a proud graduate of the class of '79! I have fond memories of Bentley and the time I spent there both in class and out. My Junior and Senior year I was ranked fourth in singles on the varsity tennis team. Some of my former classmates may recall I was kicked off the team my Senior year for telling Coach Mr. Dove that my little sister was a student at Bentley, a year before she really was. Ooops! That was one time my competitive team spirit got the better of me. (She was ranked third that year, so I wasn't happy with that one either.) I was also, briefly a swimming team cheerleader. How weird is that? My friends at Bentley all signed their pictures on the back with, "Good Luck in California!" After graduation from the University of Michigan with a major in psychology/ speech & hearing sciences I did in fact move to sunny Southern California. I then went on to get my masters degree in Communicative Disorders, with an emphasis in audiology. I know! Don't say it, "What?" My first career was as a licensed audiologist, working for 2 Ear, Nose, & throat doctors near Palm Springs, California. As cold as Michigan can get at times- - HOT! It is fr...Expand for more
eaking HOT in the there in the summer. I enjoyed the career aspect of it plenty. Then I married a High School Social Studies teacher, of all things. We wanted to share in A.T.T.O. - or all that time off. So I went on to become an elementary school teacher. Hey! It's a lot harder than it looks! We have one kid together. She is now 21 & in college herself. I have been divorced for a few years now. My entire family, both my parents, my 2 sisters & my 2 brothers are all living in California- Southern California for all but one of my brothers. He lives with his wife (his kids are also grown and out of the house now), in San Jose, California. As I write this, I am at my parents home in Torrance. My dad is now 91 and this has not been one of his better years. I am helping mom & my siblings care for him. It is really good to be close to family in more ways than one. I don't get to play tennis these days but I love to go for beach walks. Having long since moved from the Palm Springs area I now enjoy living just a few miles from the beach as well as from my parents home. I'd love to hear from my Bentley friends!
