I have had many interesting and wonderful experiences since graduation from CHS. I married my husband Rob in 1966 so that makes 34 years in April. Wow! We were not blessed with children so we had to make do with each other and lots of pets, nieces, nephews and other people’s children. We both retired in 1997 from the Peoria Unified School District in Peo AZ. Rob was Assistant Sup and I was Director of Nurses among other things. They replaced me with 3 nurses. Whew. I did write the book I mentioned at the last reunion and it has been adapted and revised for use throughout Arizona. My name is buried in it somewhere as a contributor. I have run in 10K's, done a lot of downhill (Alpine) skiing, played women's fast pitch, was skipper in a ladies sailboat race, and my most recent thing was a short term mission trip to Nepal. Ever heard of Katmandu or Mt Everest or Tibet? Rob and I have enjoyed traveling, sailing and vegging out for 2 years and then in Feb of 1999, we were asked to help put our church's preschool back on its feet. So that is where we are now. I'm the "whatever" and do mostly secretarial stuff as a volunteer. It is very rewarding working with little children and their families. I hope we are making a difference. My email address is Loosie because my sister's oldest boy said she and I reminded him of Ethel and Lucy. I couldn't get Lucy so I finally landed on Loosie...kinda fits. See you in May. (2000)
My husband, Rob passed away in July of 2014 after battling cancer, multiple myeloma for 8 years. I was his caregiver. we were married 48 years. In April, 2015, I married Russell Christie whom I had dated my freshman year of high school. He went to Tucson High and we dated while Catalina students attended Tucson HIgh in the afternoon. Russell and I live in Fairhope, Alabama. He has 4 children, 5 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. They have accepted me into the fold and I am very blessed. I am learning to fish and garden and we have joined the Methodist church. I plan to be trained in the Stephen ministry. (Last Updated: Sept 2015) |
