What I've been doin' since '63. (written 6/03)
updated 3/09
Met Jim and fell head over heels in the summer of '63---we both worked at the Royal Theatre. Employees were not allowed to date. We married in '66.
After that I worked at a TopValueStamp Redemption Store (remember those?) until our 1st son was born. Stay-at-home-mom pretty much of the next 10 years raising our 2 boys and a surprise daughter. Now I'm working in a very special, nationally recognized program in the Redford Union School District that teaches preschool deaf children how to listen and speak. Extremely rewarding! Not so much in dollars--but, hey,you can't have everything.
For fun we often hang out at our local Karaoke Lounge--okay--neighborhood bar. Sounds sleazy, but lots of ...Expand for more
free entertainment and good company. Jim is a great singer ---mostly oldies, of course!! This last year we were blessed with 2 grandsons. (And now another grandson in Oct 05) They are keepin' us young and hoppin'. Anyone wanna see some pix? Actually, Jim has put together an collection of pictures and other interesting, amusing and amazing things on the web. Search for "Canovan.com". You can then peek into our family and the very peculiar mind of my beloved husband.
Update 3/09 Now up to 6 (4 boys and 2 girls) grandchildren. whew! Jim has retired but is busy with hobbies of music, art, ebay, photo stuff. I am still working...enjoy it most days. I don't access this website very often...find it frustrating. So if you'd like to contact me - google "Jim Vanhollebeke". We're in Redford.
