Florence's Story

Life:that profile lies. I did not go to HighPoint High School. I went to High Point College.& I can't change. After I finished Annapolis High School in 1960 I went to High Point College (now a University) in North Carolina. I finished there in 1963, and came back home to Edgewater MD. I found a job in Calvert County Maryland doing Social Work. I continued to visit in North Carolina with my friends there until Clyde got married. After that I kept traveling and working and had my front teeth knocked out in a car accident in 1966. That was a pivotal point in my life and helped me turn my life around and get serious. I went to Graduate school of Social Work in Baltimore at U.of Md. I earned an MSW in 1972 and went to work for Maryland CHildren's Aid Society in Towson MD. I counseled families and indivituals. In my career in Social WOrk I have practiced in places like Crownsville Hospital in Maryland, done Adoptions on the eastern Shore of Maryland and in Prince George's County. I have also worked in Foster Care and Child Protective Service, and if you want to know more look up my biography in Who's Who in America.

e in emotional distress. We set up a group practice and non-profit agency in Columbia MD. I bought a condo and furnished it, thinking that I was settled for life. in 1982 I became engaged to David Abel, a Veterinarian and owner of Wheaton Animal Hospital in Wheaton MD. We were married in Jan 1983 and lived happily ever after at his home in Prince George's County. In 1999 I learned that Clyde has Chronic Leukiemia and only has a few years left to live. My husband is great. We have a poodle and a Benji type dog. We travel a lot to conferences for Veterinarians and counselors. we have been to the West Coast, the left coast, New Orleans, ST Louis, the sand dunes of Michigan, Toronto, NEW YORK CIY, Florida, Tennessee, Seattle, and we went to the Conference exploring the Origin of Life in Modena Italy 2000where my husband was a featured speaker. While we where there we took a side trip to Rome, Florence, Venice, Verona, and to the Vatican. TO top it all off I have been to NORMAL, Illinois. I can genuinely say that I have been in a NORMAL place. and today 2005 We have put all of our parents to rest and wondering what does a couple do afterr they become orphans. I Hope you are doing better. Ciao, Flo
