Hello everyone, Here is the story of my life so far, since Bremerton.
After moving to San Jose Ca. in Dec. 1966, I went to work for IBM there. When I became single in 1970, I stayed in San Jose and continued to work at IBM. After a year of dating various guys I met Dennis Yeager, an industrial engineer who worked in the same building as me and after dating for a little over a year, we were married on the campus of San Jose State Univ., his alma mater. This was the beginning of a wonderful 36.5 year marriage that saw us move from San Jose, where our first two sons were born, to Tucson, Arizona where we welcomed our youngest son, Jeff. Soon the IBM lifestyle had us moving to Danbury, Ct. while Dennis worked in White Plains NY. This was one of the best parts of our family life...we enjoyed the New England countryside and the seasons and our little church in New Fairfield, Ct. where we were very involved. After only three years there, the company moved us to Austin, Tx. where we lived until 2007 when we moved to Cedar Park, a small town just north of Austin that is quickly growing into an extension of the larger city. It is very hard to believe, but I have been in Texas for 30 years! I now have four beautiful grandchildren and am very blessed to spend LOTS of time with them. The oldest is almost 16, a blond, blue-eyed curly haired beauty that can sing like a lark. She is a sophomore in high school. The two other girls are 13 and 12 and attend the local middle school. One is a dancer and the other is a super athlete. She plays volleyball on a local league and is a very fast runner. My guess is she will go out for both sports in 7th grace next year. Our one grandson is a typical 11 year old: he loves gun battles, video games, and playing football.
My life is fairly busy since I am involved in a wonderful Bible Study once a week, spend two days a week volunteering at my grandson's elementary school and work at keeping up with a house and yard on my own. Sadly, I lost my dear hubby in August 2009. I miss him terribly and I'm still working out living on my own and doing many of the things I never had to do before. I am really looking forward to this reunion since I have not been able to attend one since 1974 (10 year)
Editing, now in March 2017, I have added 2 more beautiful granddaughters, age 3.5 and 15 months, they arethe children if my second so , Eric...He married his sweetheart Lindsay in May 2015. Also I have moved again, to Leander, Tx just a few miles farther north.
