Linda's Story

Life I've continued to live in Tacoma since graduation. I have a daughter, Julie born in 1961 and a son Jim born in 1971. Julie and her husband are the parents of my 2 teen age grand children, Harrison and Meghanne. Both of my children graduated from Wilson and they also live in Tacoma. My brother, Stephen Smith graduated from FP in 1968. He and his wife have 3 grown daughters and live in University Place. Our parent's have both passed away. After over 30 years living in Tacoma's North end, I'm once again out in the "old stompin grounds" of Tacoma's south end. Not all that far from my childhood home on the SE corner of 84th & Waller Road. After over 25 plus years of service I retired from MultiCare Health System on February 1, 2007. I still keep in contact with many of my "old" friends from Midland & Franklin Pierce and many people from former workplaces. Workplace After high school I worked at the local telephone company for 4 years. Then Dunmire Oldsmobile for 4 years, after that Walker Chevrolet for 2 years and Puget Sound Bank for 1 year. I worked at Tacoma General Hospital part time in 1974-1976, again in 1979 I worked at the hospital for 1 year and then in 1982, with the change of my marital status... it was back to T.G. working at various jobs until Februar...Expand for more
y 1, 2007 when I celebrated my last day, working for the Health System. After Retiring It's been wonderful connecting with old friends and just being home to do as I please. In April of 2007, I traveled to Tempe, Arizona to attend a surprise 65th birthday party for Nancy (Allison) Hickman. Nancy and I have remained friends since our early days at Midland and Franklin Pierce. She and her husband Don travel to the Tacoma area frequently but this was my first time visiting them. While there I tried to reach Dan & Georgia Burke, but sadly had an incorrect phone number for them. I enjoyed the multi-class reunion on July 21, 2007, hosted by the class of 1958 and held at F.P.H.S. I've hosted 2 potluck luncheons for the gals of FPHS Class of 1960. We've had a wonderful time. In September 2008, a group of us met at Round Table Pizza for lunch and we'll have another pot luck in February or March of 2009. If we missed notifying you, and you're interested in attending the next one, please get in touch with me. We had a wonderful 50th Class reunion on August 7, 2010. We missed those of you who could not make it. Those of us who live locally are enjoying getting together for lunch every couple months at Elmer's Restaurant. Please contact me if you're interested in joining us.
