Laila Lunn-Zaoral:  

Hi everyone. After High School I went into banking for many years. A few years after High school I re-met and married my first husband Karel Zaoral ( from our class at Queen E.). We had 2 children together, Tifani Lorien Zaoral (Tifi) and Karel Miles Zaoral ( Miles). I also eventually began my educational journey before we divorced. I started post-secondary education at Mount Royal in Industrial Hygiene and ended up at the U of C in Engineering. Between my 3rd and 4th year at U of C I did a 16 month internship at IBM in Toronto. After graduation. I was hired back but by then the electronic manufacturing division had been sold off and became a company called Celestica. I worked there for about 6 more years where I met the man who became my second husband (Ted). After I lost my daughter Tifi in a car accident (when she was 19) I moved back to Calgary and lived in a community called Hidden Valley until very recently. My son is almost 30 now. My how the time has flown. I have worked as a contractor in Oil and Gas projects for much of the time since I came back to Alberta In August Ted and I sold our house and downsized to a condo in Airdrie. We are still in the throws of developing storage solutions and unpacking. With the downturn in oil prices I was laid off after my most recent project was completed. Now my challenge is caring for my husband who has been diagnosed with cancer. I will not be attending this years festivities because of that. I read your stories from time to time and hope to see pictures from the event. don't forget to...Expand for more
