Married Ruel Cooper my last year at the UofA. Moved to Phoenix > Denver > Phoenix > Boise > back to Tucson in 1981. Along the way I completed my M.A. at ASU and had 3 children. Since 2002 our 3 children have married and given us 7 grandchildren, 6 of whom are under 6 years old. Most of our travels lately have been to visit them. Daughter Kylle lives in KCMO; son Ruel lives in Denver area; and daughter Kara is moving from Tucson to Denver in October '10. We've been blessed to have Kara, husband Matt, and 2 darling little girls here for over 5 years. Tucson will be very lonely without them here. For the past 7 years I have been teaching Tai Chi for Arthritis classes around Tucson. It is very rewarding work and makes me appreciative of all the good things in my life. I attend the monthly Lunch Bunch when my schedule permits and always have a wonderful time. No need for Laughter Yoga with that group -- just get them together in a room. (2010).
I am still teaching Tai Chi for Fall Prevention classes in NW Tucson and still loving it. Not traveling much anymore. Children and 'grands' are good to come and visit us. Lots more wrinkles, never enough hours in the day to get things done, struggling to keep up with technology, etc., but life is good. (Last Updated: Sept 2015) |
