Life
Hi to all you Angels! It was great to see many of you at our 30th and 40th reunions in 2001 and 2011! (I wanted to see more of you though!) After graduating from Lewis & Clark College in Portland, I began my elementary teaching career. I have remained in Oregon all this time with my husband Rick of 46 years, and two sons ~ Travis age 37 and Nathan, who will turn 34 in August.

I would love to go back to East and see the musicals and hear if the European History class travels to Europe. I would really enjoy hearing from you and hope you are well!
