Today's Featured Biography
Marilyn Brinson Showalter
Well, I was born in the Ware County Hospital. I attended Isabella Street School and Waycross High School which were two of the best schools in the country as I have found as I continued my journey through life. I also think that we had some of the best teachers in elementary and high school and that we all got a very good education.
After graduation I went to the University of Georgia and majored in speech and hearing therapy. Doris Beasley was my Freshman roommate and we had a great time.
When I graduated from UGA I moved to Jacksonville, Fl and roomed with Alex Scott and Linda Gillis. Alex was the social worker, Linda, the music teacher, and I was the speech therapist.
While in Jacksonville, I met Nelson Showalter, a naval aviator and we eloped (?) to Folkston,Ga on March 1,1967. He left me after 16 hours and went over seas. I went to follow the ship around for about three months then returned to Jacksonville to began working in the public schools again.
Our first son, Matthew, was born in Jacksonville in December 1968 and then we departed for Chicagoland where Nelson was a pilot for TWA and I worked for the McHenry County Public Schools.
We lived in Buffalo Grove and then Crystal Lake Illinois for 20 years. Our second son, Michael, was born in 1971.
Nelson was furloughed with TWA and then went to work for US Airways. After our sons graduated from high school, I retired and we moved to Fernandina Beach.
I have always wanted to live on the ocean and that is where we have been for 22 years. We have been fortunate to be able to travel around the world and we have also enjoyed having small planes, sailboats and now we have a jet boat and a deck boat.
Nelson and I do a lot of volunteer work with our church, First Presbyterian, and with other community organizations.
We also enjoy being out on the water, on the beach. or being with friends such as Sylvia, who lives down the street. Do you know that we have known each other for over 60 years?
Like Harry said in his Bio it is great to have my morning cup of coffee and look out at the ocean.
