Joan's Story
Life
My hubby and I celebrated 49 years of married life last week! A major milestone. We have three children (our oldest passed away 2 years ago)...and our youngest is a "battling" cancer survivor. He is a pre-med student and a certified pharmacy technician. We are very proud of him! We have 6 grandchildren.
They all live back in Utah - while we are located in Texas - and love it. I have been a teacher (am retired now), but teach in the adult ed department of a local college. I teach sewing and serging, genealogy and scrapbooking. When I was in Lewis and Clark, I enjoyed membership in the writing club...that lead to my doing some creative writing - and writing of a couple of published instructional books.
My hubby is a retired electronic engineer, who now "dabbles" in the surplus business. The most fun member of our family is probably our Australian Shepherd pup (almost 5 years old). We manag...Expand for more
e to keep very busy and enjoy our lives in the great American Southwest!
Our daughter worked with the Olympic Committee in Salt Lake City in 2001/2002....she worked in production (open and closing ceremonies). She continues to work with various movie and television companies that come into Utah.
Since leaving Lewis and Clark in 1955, I have had a very full and active life....traveled a great deal and moved around, in conjunction with hubby's work. The one regret is that I have not been able to come back to Spokane. My parents left the area in 1970...and I haven't been back since a short visit in the winter of 1964. I understand the growth in the area has been tremendous! I will always remember the summer (and winter) joys in Manito Park - and especially the beauty of Grand Avenue after a snow storm! Oh, and yelling my "head off" for the LC Tigers at a football game.....what wonderful memories!
