After graduation I got a Secretarial Degree from ABAC and immediately went to work at The Bank of Tifton for the next 5 years. Earl and I married in April 1962 and celebrated 57th anniversary this year. We have two daughters, Suzanne and Beth. Suzanne and Joe Hopkins married in 1992 and now live in Birmingham AL where Joe is Dean of Performing Arts at Samford University. They have two sons who are 16 and 14 years old. Beth and Stephen Rakestraw married in 1993 and live in Tifton where Stephen has his own Landscape Architect business. They have 2 daughters ages 22 and 18 and two sons ages 15 and 10. So you see we have a total of 6 grandchildren. I have kept busy through the years with church work, civic organizations and garden clubs.
I also worked with a travel agency and did group tours throughout the United States and Europe which I thoroughly enjoyed. Earl and his brothers own and operate the family business, Curtis Packing Company which has been very successful. We now have a retail
store on Hwy. 41 South adjacent to the plant.
Earl continues to work 12 hours a day and will do so until Bowen Donaldson picks him up. It's been said if you love what you do it will
never be considered work. That describes him.
I love working in my garden with beautiful daylilies and seasonal blooming plants like
zinnias and shasta daisies. We are always busy with improvements on our home. Tifton
has always been my home and we love the
great community that it has become. Church
plays an important part of our lives for which we are thankful. We came up in the best time
of this country.

Thank you and good luck in all your endeavors."
