Glenda 's Story
After graduating from WHS, I attended Chandler School for Women in Boston for two years trying to become a "well-dressed, poised, charming, well-coiffed, well-groomed, intelligent conversationalist; politically savvy, excellent cook, immaculate housekeeper, marry a wealthy older widower with no children (or 'issues' as they say)" and provide him with his own well-behaved kids.

"Is this "MY GLENDA?".
That was 1981 (30 yrs. since we'd seen each other) and we're celebrating our 26th anniversary on 12/16/09. Well, he's a keeper!!! Very generous, kind, gentle and funny! "We have to keep the fun alive if we are to succeed.
Ciao!"
