Linda Stephens Slater

Hi everyone. I don't understand how YOU classmates can celebrate your 50th class reunion. Being 25 yrs of age, I've only been out of school eight years, at least that's what it feels like! LoL!! Where have the years gone.
For individuals that are tired of reading bios I will make mine a two part writing. I am Linda Stephens Slater, I'm in very good health and living in Nevada. That being said, lets get to the nitty gritty.

When we graduated I left on my adventure of life with my best friend, Lorrie Hart. We went to Lake Tahoe and after living on sunflower seeds and a employer provided one meal a day, I went into the gaming industry during the boom of the 60's and 70's. I did very well in this endeavor and accomplished all my goals, but I became jaded in dealing with the public in that environment, so I entered public service with Douglas County, Nevada in the Auditor/Recorders office. Upon entry I had no idea that this would be my chosen career for the next thirty years. I rose from a part time Payroll Clerk to the Elected County Recorder. I served as the County Recorder for two terms (8 yrs) and retired only after a near fatal traffic accident. I stayed retired for several years, enjoying every minute, I might add! Once again I received the call for public service. I ran a successful campaign for the Gardnerville Town Council, of which I am currently in my second term.

Now you've heard about my career so I will give you a highlight of what I consider an ideal private life. I met and fell in love with my husband, Randy, (now retired from law enforcement) while working at Lake Tahoe and we have been married since 1971. We have two sons and three wonderful grandsons which are all happy, healthy and successful. We live in the Carson Valley in Gardnerville, Nevada, which if you have not visited our community, is truly beautiful. Randy and I both have had the opportunity to do world wide traveling (Egypt, Tahiti, Ireland, Europe) as well as throughout the fifty United States.
When I left Grass Valley, like all dreamers, I was in search of "something" and little did I know at that time, that I would find my utopia just over the mountain, but I did. I guess I am truly one of the lucky ones.

I come back to Grass Valley periodically and visit the old schools, like my first grade school out on McCourtney Road and to see what changes have taken place in my home town. Things have changed, but not really as much as one may think.

In closing, I just want to wish everyone the very best and hope that our 50th class reunion brings back many wonderful memories for all. Best to you all.
