Today's Featured Biography

 

Susan Downs Armstrong

After Thomas Jefferson I graduated from SMU with a BA in Speech and Hearing Therapy. I married my college sweetheart, Thomas E Armstrong, we had two children and now have 6 grandchildren. Tom went to work for Container Corporation of America and I worked for the Dallas School system. After a few years we joined the corporate merry-go-round and moved to Chicago, Seattle, Valley Forge, PA then back to Seattle in 1972. Tom purchased Ridgway Corp. a company that made folding cartons. I became a housewife and community volunteer and was able to be involved in our children's activities as well as volunteering in their sports and schools. Seattle Children's Hospital became my major charitable association. Both Tom and I have been involved in many fund raising activities together, especially a Vintage Car Race which has raised over 5 million dollars for the hospital.

Tom sold his company when we were 52 and we both then had more time to devote to Tom's hobby of cars and were able to become part owners of an Indianapolis Indy Car Team and to also start racing our own vintage cars. I enjoyed driving my 2 race cars both 1963 Corvettes one of which was a very historical Z06. We raced mostly on the west coast but also in England, New Zealand and into the
east. I have been most proud of my racing license and my Class A Commercial drivers license. We have enjoyed taking our own cars in our custom built Peterbilt/motorhome to the races.

Life has been good to us and we have had a great ride. We miss Texas but love living in the Northwest.

Hello to all! My High School years are a great memory and I cherish that time of my life. Susan
