Sylvia's Story
Life
After graduation from Bremen High School, I attended West Georgia College and graduated in 1972 with a degree in Art Education with a minor in Early Childhood education. I began my teaching career at that time at H. A. Jones Elementary School in Bremen. In 1976 I married my soul mate, George, and we have now been married 30 years! I continued my education at WGC earning a masters in Early Childhood and one in Reading. In 1978 I taught Remedial reading at Villa Rica Elementary School and in 1979 received an offer to teach for the Department of Defense Dependent Schools Overseas. It was the opportunity of a lifetime! I contracted for two years and my first school assignment was in Mannheim, Germany. Two years turned into 24 and I was privledged to also teach in Osterholz-Sharmbeck (by Bremen), Berlin, and Ramsein, Germany, and Misawa, Japan during these 24 years.

o tell you about my 24 years overseas, all the experiences and all the friends along the way...it was wonderful! It was truly a dream come true. In 2003 George and I retired after 31 years in education to Gulf Shores, Alabama on Mobile Bay near Ft. Morgan. In retirement I am now pursuing my career as an artist (having taught in the art field to so many of all ages, it is my turn now!). George and I have a part-time "fun" job weekend nights in a retail gift shop at LuLu's Restaurant (Jimmy Buffet's sister) in Gulf Shores...yes, Jimmy comes in and yes, I have talked to him personally! Life is really good and I cherish and enjoy each day. They say, "when you own a house at the beach, all your friends and others come out of the woodwork, so COME ON DOWN"! I hope this is true as I would love to see old friends again...and even make some new ones. My philosohpy..."LIVE, LOVE, LAUGH...enjoy LIFE!"
