Trudie Aspinwall:  

Life After high school, I graduated in 1953 from Georgia Teachers College(now Georgia Southern University)with a BS in Education with my major in English. I taught high school English for 4 1/2 years before starting a family. After 4 years out of teaching, I added Elementary Education to my certification and stayed mostly in 6th grade language arts for the rest of my 30 years of teaching. Along the way, I had 4 sons. My husband, Mershon, and I have been married for 52 years. We have lived in Waycross most of our married life and are active in our church and other community activities. I am a substitute adult Sunday School teacher and sing in the choir. Also, I am past president of the Waycross Exchangette Club. I like to read, do crossword puzzles, cross-stitch, and visit our 8 grandchildren whenever possible. I retired in 1988 and have enjoyed making 4 great trips with my husband and another couple. The first was a 50th Anniversary of D-Day tour. Then we did an Alpine tour to northern Italy, Switzerland, and Austria. Next was a river cruise going from Vienna, Austria, to Amsterdam in The Netherlands.Then we made a trip beginning in St. Petersburg, Russia, and going from there to the capital cities...Expand for more
