Paula Lenzi Kantor

How does one cover 40 years? I guess at the start! After graduation I went to Bridgewater State College. I graduated in 1974 with a BA in Psych. That degree led to a job with the Department of Mental Health. While employed there, I completed a Master's degree in Counseling from Bridgewater. While at DMH, I had the sad experience of working with a woman who was a victim of serious domestic violence. There were little if any services for victims in the late 70's. She had no options but to return to her battering husband. This experience led my supervisor to vow that no other woman in Plymouth should be another victim. Thus, together we created the South Shore Women's Center, which continues to service victims of domestic violence on the south shore.
After 8 years at DMH, I began employment at the Department of Social Services as a social worker. I spent five years as a social worker and was promoted to a supervisor in 1987. I worked in the Weymouth office. The agency is now called the Department of Children and Families. I've happily retired in October 2010.
Over the years I've lived in Cambridge and now in Weymouth. I married my longtime sweetheart in 2007. We live on the ocean in Weymouth. However, we plan to retire to Sedona, Arizona in about five years. I'll miss the ocean, but Sedona is the most beautiful place on earth. I had no children by choice. My husband has two grown daughters. One daughter recently had a son. They live in San Francisco so we don't get to see him that often but having Skype helps!
I've also traveled extensively. Traveling has always been a passion of mine. I've been to China, on safari in Africa, taken a river cruise in Russia to remote villages and explored the Galapagos Island and the Amazon river. Right after retirement, I'm traveling to Thailand. It's been fun!
I'm happy to say I have my health. I spend my free time doing decorative painting. I found my creative side when I turned 50! Now I sell my items on the Internet and some local craft shows.
I'd say this pretty well sums up 40 years of my life!
