After graduation I attended OC for 1 year. I then went to a Medical Assistant vocational school in Seattle. Upon graduation from that program, I married Larry Gallagher. We had a 15 year marriage and 2 wonderful children. In 1990 I married my best friend, with whom I learned to laugh, grow, and value myself. He is an internist with a practice here in Port Orchard. Jim has 2 lovely daughters and although we never had children together, we consider ourselves very fortunate to have a blended family. I went back to school in 1990 and got my Associate's degree and then my Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education. I got my first teaching job in 1995 at Sunnyslope Elementary and that is where I have been ever since. I currently teach first grade, which most of the time I love. There are days, however, that I think I'd rather be a barista or a professional shoe shopper, or something more exciting and less stressful. I love the summers off! This summer we moved to our dream home or I should say dream location. It is on 60 feet of waterfront in Manchester, WA with a view of Seattle, Mount Rainier, bald eagles, and Blake Island. We went from having no mortgage payments to never being able to retire as long as we live. Oh well! Our oldest daughter (31) is currently living here with us so she can complete a masters degree in school psychology, and my son (28) is a basketball coach and athletic director in Beaverton, OR and is getting married in March. Jim's oldest (22) will graduate from Whitman in May with a Bio degree (pre med) and his youngest (18) is a freshman on a gymnastics scholarship at SPU. We are very busy, but I need to learn to make more time for friends in my life. I love being in contact with high school classmates. The reunion was so much fun. I hope for many opportunities, besides reunions, to get together.

"Just discovered your product today while trying to locate classmates ahead of our 50th reunion in 2020. The fact that you did this in a noncommercial manner in a world where everything has a price tag deserves recognition and respect, in my view.
Thank you and good luck in all your endeavors."
