Theresa's Story
Life
Currently residing in Sacramento area. Have been a Probation Officer for Sac county for 17 years. Was in the Army for a total of 16 years. I attended the last reunion (20th) back in 1990 but haven't heard of any since. Would love to see all before we start to become unrecognizable! :) I married , divorced and have a lovely daughter who married in 2002. Now I am a proud Grandma to an adorable almost 2 yr old grandson !! I have lived in Europe and have had a wonderful, active life and plan to continue doing so! There have been some downs such as losing my sister Karen to cancer in 1994, a good friend Patty Marr shortly after that , then my ex-husband Michael on near his 47th birthday in 1999. But on the other hand, I have gained, a son-in-law, my grandson, a new niece and 3 grandnephews! My job is demanding but pays for my lifestyle. I own a lovely home with a yard that is ever lovingly tended to. I have wonderful friends who care about me. Life is good !

ery rewarding or glamorous but it pays fairly well and I never have time to be bored! I see so many of the social problems up close and personal that it is often drifting over into the way I see my world around me. Sometimes I wish I could make a difference....maybe in politics ? Who knows...it's not too late to start!
