Gayle's Story
Life
I still love life and enjoy having fun. Even though I went to 13 schools, they were all in King County so still see many of my classmates. Although I started High School at Lake Washington in Kirkland, we moved to Kent and I attended Kent-Meridian my Sophmore year and Kentridge my Junior and Senior years. Jr. High years were spent mostly at Redmond Jr. High so I had a lot of friends that went to Redmond High also. My son Chris is 37 and married to a wonderful young woman, Amy. They have given me two incredible grandchildren...Dustin (1999) and Holly (2001). They are involved in 4-H, horses, sports, Awana and much more. Holly even went to basketball and cheerleading camp and they both love to read.
I went to work for Boeing in 1977 and was there until August of 2004.

My most favorite places to travel are South Dakota to visit the kids, cruises and Disneyworld. A few years ago I looked up an old friend, on this site, from Redmond Jr.Hi, Terri Hanson. She was living in North Carolina. So, while on a business trip and 1/2 way there anyway, I decided to rent a car and drive the rest of the way to see her as well as some other friends and relatives along the way. It was great. Neither one of us had changed a bit! :-)
