Joyce's Story

The one thing that would surprise my friends is that I did not marry Bob Riggins. That was the plan at the time I graduated but things changed and we ended up marrying someone other than each other! After graduating from North I remained in Wichita for the next 13 years working for 4 different oil companies. My husband and I decided to move to a smaller town because we felt it would be better to raise our family in a small town atmosphere. We never did regret that decision either. At the time we moved we already had 3 children and then had one more child after we moved to Sallisaw, Oklahoma, my husband's hometown. I continued to work full time, primarily 11 years as a office manager/ paralegal for a legal office and 13 years as a legal/clinical services secretary for a long-term care company in their Ft. Smith, Arkansas corporate offices. I retired the last day of 2003, 3 months after my husband passed away. We had been married 43 years. Currently I have 4 children, 10 grandchildren (8 grandsons and 2 grandda...Expand for more
ughters) and 5 great-grandchildren with 2 more on the way. (Those little buggers just keep on comin'.) I watch some of my grandchildren a couple of days while their parents work and sometimes do volunteer work for the Alzheimer Association. My mom died of Alzheimer's and volunteering is something I can do in her memory. I've had the joy of joining my life long best friend Sally Edwards Catlin (she is a '59 grad too) and her husband, family and friends on a couple of cruises in the past 4 years and hope to be able to make a few more. I have a time share at Branson, MO where the grandchildren really like to go. Nana (me) doesn't mind shopping and a show or two now and then either. Hope some of you guys that were classmates of mine will send me an email and let me know what's going on with you. Would be great to talk about old times at North High! Oh, by the way, Bob and I reconnected through Classmates and have really enjoyed chatting online and catching up with what has happened in each others lives since 1960.
