Tawny Lambert:  

Attended Silver Lake High School for the end of 7th grade (1963), all of 8th and 9th grades and beginning of 10th grade (1966). We lived in Pembrook on the shore of Pembrook Lake. Great place for a kid to grow up with swimming and ice skating. Loved the Pembrook dances. Moved to Anaheim, CA and attended Savanna High school. Graduated in 1968. I was a basketball statistician and scorekeeper for the "B" and "C" teams for 3 years. Coach Yonts lettered me in basketball the third year for all my works. It was great fun for a math geek. I enjoyed selling snacks in the football stands for the AFS Club (photo 1967 Savana Yearbook page 167 3rd row 2nd from right). During the boy's home track games, I held the finish line tape. The guys would tease Leroy that the winner would get to kiss Tawny. That year he won every race and went to the finals. When they came home, the guys teased me saying "He lost because you were not holding the tape." They were great guys and lots of fun to cheer on. I was accepted in a special Industrial Occupation Drafting program and majored in drafting in my Junior and Senior years. at Savanna High and was in college prep classes Took all the math I could get. My goal was to be in Architecture but after working awhile found I preferred Engineering best. In 1967 I married my husband Donald Lambert, and we had 2 boys, Donald Jr. 1969 and Raymond 1976. No grandchildren. Raymond and I are still close, and we enjoyed many Red Sox games together. We wanted to see them at every stadium but have not been able to do that. We did make it to a lot of them including several trips to Fenway, spring training in FL and we got to see their exhibit at the Baseball Hall of Fame. In 1976 I started working in drafting. Over the years I worked in both private and public agency jobs. In those days I was considered a woman's libber, but the term was different back then. We just wanted the right to work in jobs that were considered men's jobs and receive equal pay for doing the same job. We didn't want to be men. I dressed in jeans when I had to go out in the field for jobs but skirts and dressed in the office. It didn't matter what I did in drafting and designing, I loved it all. In school I hated the steel section but when I went to work, I ended up loving steel the most. My profile pictures show my favorite building. I did the system that holds the stone and windows on the 21-s...Expand for more
